    So after too many hours and laps on the hones to count, I finally got the nick out and got it shave ready. Got a damn fine shave from it too. I'm really starting to like the heavy wedges. The only downfall I've seen is the absurd amount of time it takes to hone them.

    I hear ya! But it is (IMHO) well worth the effort.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    I agree. I have 2 wedges and a 1/4 hollow as well as a few hollow and extra hollows and find myself going to the heavier blade more often.
