    Yeah I'm pretty sure Pixel is one person who doesn't need to consult with anyone for the price of ivory. IIRC, it's usually the other way around.

    And sorry about your luck on that one. I feel your pain.

    Next time I will set a bevel before I scale the razor.Was interesting in that what seemed a minor discolored spot on the edge just kept growing to the point I was able to stick a needle up into the blade about an 1/8 of an inch.
    I finished honing it,unpinned it,will make some sort of a handle for it and it will be givin a new life as a Lame knife for my wifes bread making program

    Can you shorten the blade past the damaged section?

    I would think so,but not my way,I want my razors to be as close to orig as possible (the blades themselves)

    Depending on how much I want a blade I would continue to grind that edge, you have some room, hard to tell how far that corrosion crawls in the pic.
