Hey guys,

I need a bit of help, some advice or just some expert opinions for honing a thick wedge.
It's this old stubby Bengall I got a couple of weeks ago, and I'm having a bit of trouble deciding how to hone this one.

The problem is this: there is a slight slant in the spine at the toe end. By this I mean that if you look straight to the 'front' of the blade (so perpendicular to the edge \/ ), there is a slight slant (about 1-1.5 mm) on the top, short side of the triangle.

It is a full smiling wedge, and the angle when laid flat on both side is, as far as I can see with the naked eye, the same.

But being as good at math and geometry as a sea cucumber, I'm not sure how to tape the spine (I always tape every razor I hone) as to not mess up the angle too much.

My instinct tells me to get the edges of the tape even horizontally and not trying to compensate the slant by uneven taping.

Or maybe I should hone this one without tape. Although I would not prefer that, there is plenty of spine compared to the blade width. I unfortunately don't have any measurements, but the spine is wide, and blade width about 6/8. No pictures either, because the camera I have is pretty so-so and I can't get it to show right.

Anyway, I thought I'd get some feedback here before messing up the bevel and wasting steel of a great blade in pretty damn good shape. Shoot.
