Just found Bill's answer on his cd
From Bill's cd
--------------------
"Hold a fine grit snap-on disc, attached to a rotary tool of course, perpendicular to the blade. Very lightly, run the disc at a low speed along the edge to remove the nicks and also true up the straightness of the blade."

This cd is simply wonderful and well worth the modest purchase price.
Guess I should have done more research before posting. Will a 90% angle on the 4k Norton also work or would the dremel be best on a nick this small?
The advice was a winner / slurry work up?
I used the 4k side with a piece of masking tape (is scotch tape better?) starting with circles and ending with normal honing. At various intervals I checked the 100power scope for my progress. Worked like a charm. Thanks so much.
A previous post asked if I was sure the cuts were from my razor and not from my technique. As I have been using a se for only about 2 weeks, I certainly do not have the history to be sure of this issue. I'll defer to the better judgement of your collective experience if you guys think a microchip is not capable of causing cuts. In any event, the cuts were very minor and part of my learning curve. As an aside, Moma bear had sent me a healing stick with my last soap order which works quite well.
Let me conclude with another related newbie question. The last reply said to work up a slurry. Isn't the slurry the result of the honing. If not, how does one work up the slurry before the honing is initiated?
