I recently bought some razors off ebay and hand sanded and polished the blades. Now that I want to hone them they are as dull as a butter knife! Is setting the bevel with the 220 side of my Norton 220/1000 alright or is it too coarse? It seemed like I was getting nowhere with the 1k until I dropped down to the 220 for awhile. I don't want to damage the blade so should I just spend more time on the 1k or get a DMT 600? I can't afford a DMT anytime soon so hopefully what I have will work.

I have asked quite a few questions lately and am very appreciative of all the great responses I have gotten! If you live in a small town this is the ONLY resource to get all your information! Thank you
