    I never even thought of that. I've probably honed 20 or 30 razors since the last time I lapped it.

    Alright, I'm getting the edge to where it feels like my shave ready ones. I try to test it by trying to shave arm hair and it won't do it. I then feel the edge again and it feels as dull as a butter knife. Did I just get a crappy razor?

    Could be temper has been changed but it is not very often findings.
    i think you have bevel setting problem.
    Because you mention early one of your message blade cuts on one side and don't another.
    this is bevel problem.
