    In their eyes, if dovo or TI says it is shaveready, it is shaveready, end of story. and dovo does not sell warped razors at all. If you cannot hone it because it is bent, you obviously did something to damage it.

    Do a forum search for posts under my name which mention the koordenwinkel and you'll find some more novel ideas about honing.

    Their problem (imo) is that they have been one-eye in the land of the blind for so long that they don't realize that some people now actually have 2 eyes, and know more than they do.

    That's really disappointing to read. They have an impressive website. I was hoping Paul's experience was an oversight. I just ordered a hostorical TI from Laguiole in France I am now holding my breath for what's delivered.
