Honestly, it would probably be better for my sanity to buy a shave-ready blade, but I'm very stubborn and after using up so much time, I must see it through so long as my sanity holds. I don't know what to do about the shoulder meeting the heel. I've tried to round that off, but the area is too small to do much on the stone. I'd be happy just to get the rest of the blade good to go. On that note, once I manage to even out the blade, is it just normal honing from that point?
