Today I hone it and shave.
Fantastic filing, not because it’s something, just because I manage to hone it myself perfectly (my opinion).
Thanks all of you for the advices. These advices make me today to hone this razor that good.
Thank again.
Glad its working out well for you. Would be nice to see a picture of the entire razor.

Comets of what you see are welcome.
Looks very nice, typical French razor, thanks for The pictures.
It has a different thickness between the two sides. I don’t know if the problem is my way of honing or is in the spine.
It's either due to that side spending more time on the stones or using a heavy hand on that side. This is something to look for in the bevel setting stage. I wouldn't worry about it too much for now. The important thing is that you are happy with how the edge is performing. In the future, before a blade touches the stone, examine it for things that you may want to correct. If the bevel starts out even and becomes uneven, you know it's due to technique. As long as you have a complete bevel from heel to toe, the issue is only cosmetic. If that blade were mine, I'd leave it uneven rather than remove metal unnecessarily.Quote:
