I got rid of a smallish frown out of a nice 8/8 straight last weekend. It took a fair amount of work on a 400 grit to get rid of it, but it was worth it for this razor. I lifted the spine a little to help grind the extra away a little faster. As soon as I could sit the edge along a ruler and it was dead flat, I just honed it as normal.

Just to finish the story on the original Wade & Butcher:
With enough time on 650-grit sandpaper, the edge _did_ come straight.
It's in my regular rotation, now.
