It might look like the toe but both chips are in about the first 3/4" of the heel

Nor me although it is very hard to see with the naked eye.

My feelings aren't hurt Jerry, much :cry:

Seriously though, you are right, that is one ugly scratch pattern, I'm quite proud of it actually, bet you can't make one that bad :rofl2:

I do agree...

I have to apologize for my post yesterday, I was on the point of blowing a fuse with this Titan.

Titan aren't problem razors as far as I know, they're not the best but I do know of someone here...

Hello again,

I read the content about honing on your site and your advice in this thread.

I drew round a coin and ground to the line on a 400 diamond plate (it came today).

As I was...

Thanks for the useful information,

My Titan did shave and pretty well, if it were one of my usual vintage razors i might say it felt like it needed a bit of a refresh but considering that I...

I have another quick question about diamond plates.

How should I use it, dry, water, oil?

I just ordered a cheap diamond plate. I don't use the 220 side of my Norton 220/1k but I still don't like that I gouged it so deeply on just one stabilizer.

Just ordered one, not from chefs knives to go and cost me a few more bucks, 400/1K

Thanks, I see what your'e talking about. I'll do it again more carefully.

On a side note, I just had a shave with it. I won't pretend it was the sharpest razor I've used. Not even the sharpest I...

First I have to thank Euclid440 for the thread about correcting stabilizers, Planeden gave me the thread and I did read it but it went straight over my head unfortunately.

Thank you Paul for...

Thanks, I just corrected the stabilizer as Paul suggested earlier with a penny ( 10c actually).

I corrected it with the 220 and you are right about the stones being soft. Talk about deep gouges in...

A quick question.

Is a 1K Diamond plate better than a 1K stone, Norton 1K in my case?

If a Diamond plate is better, why is that apart from the fact that it's got diamond in the name so if I get...

I have a Norton 1k/220.

I haven't ever used the 220 side obviously but I wonder if it would do the stabilizer grinding/re-profiling that has been suggested and explained so clearly by PaulFLUS.

Thanks Mike,

I haven't actually honed the stabilizer, I did that with a dremel.


I read the post that Planeden sent the link for but to be honest I couldn't see what my problem is.

I don't...

Hi Guys,

Although I have read that this subject is in the Library, I can't find it so I am hoping for a bit of idiot proof advice.

I have a razor, it's not expensive but that's besides the...
