    Default Dorko 43 "Premier", what grind were they usually made with?

    Looks and felt like when stropping, and shaving with it, that it might be a 1/2 hollow grind on it.

    From your photo looks like a near wedge to a wedge. Place a straight edge from spine to edge. If it makes contact all the way its a wedge if a little space near wedge.

Size:  12.5 KBYa I did, think it is a 1/4 grind on it. Top notch razor, I shaved with it this morning, and was very stoked on how it shaved.

    All razors are ground on wheels therefore have some "hollow' , even wedges aka 1/4 hollows.
    If it makes contact all the way it has been honed flat.
