Getting closer.. Almost... There...

Any thoughts, techniques, cautions, or anything I need to be doing at this point? Im using a Norton 220 at 45 degrees.

Here is the W&B now with the chipped toe removed. I used the Norton 1000 to get it close and then finished with the 4000. It took about 10 minutes of playing around. Now to finish it up and to the...

OK, I'll start with the toe chipped razor sinces its easier. I'll post tomorrow with some results. Then to the Celebrated. I may (will) have more questions.

One the big chipped W&B, would it matter if I did circles compared to back-and forth just to get rid of the chip? Such as 40 circles on one side, 40 circles on the other ect...
