Help with honing...I failed
Well first I want to thank everyone for taking the time and giving me some ideas. However I failed to resolve the issue.
First I used the sharpie test and I believe the razor passed; hopefully you can see it in the picture -- provided I uploaded them properlyt. I didn't take any chance and used the bread-knife technique on a DMT to ensure I had a flat edge. I then went to LA's videos on honing to make sure I had the steps and process down pat. I even taped the spine which I don't usually do. The outcome was the same front and back would shave but not the middle.
I know have to decide if the Fromm Eagle SS razor has enough value to justify sending to SRP honing service. I can also now lose sleep over worrying that I have lost the little skill I had and will fail to hone my other razors when I next need to.
