So Matt this is a critical point. Can it be made shave ready from here without going back to bevel setting? How 'bad' is the shave? Have you posted exactly what your pyramid is? Can you post a video of you honing? A video could really help.

I agree with the comments about what razor it is, BTW. It was pretty much the first thing I thought of. I have next to no experience, but as a beginner, my mistakes are very fresh to my mind. I recently created some annoying hone wear on a razor as I didn't know (or didn't think to think) was quite soft steel in comparison to some of my Swedish razors. Why I guess it's pretty important to ascertain that sort of thing up front. Initially I was wondering if this was a SS razor.
