2. Was the razor shaving before ???? (Before you give advice to destroy the edge, the razor might not even need a bevel set)
Some little hints for the rest of you
Burrs are bad they destroy the steel on the edge, then you have to start again
Not Everyone can use the Arm Hair Test (AHT) is doesn't work on some people
The TNT combined with the Arm Hair test combined with a visual inspection like Ace is describing are all positive tests for the Bevel set, if you can do all three then more power to you but at least learn one of them to use effectively..
A TPT test works also, but it is much harder for a Newb to master that test,
Never use enough pressure to flex the edge
