Razor Edge Touched Scales - uh oh?
I'm not sure if this should be here or in the honing thread, so forgive me if this is misplaced.
Last night I finished shaving and closed my razor. The razor centers in its scales totally fine. When I closed my razor last night, however, I don't know if I sort of pressed in on the scales, moved the razor 'over' or what, but the edge of my blade made contact with the scales. The contact seemed to be pretty minimal, there was no gouge taken out of the scales, no noticeable nick in the blade's edge. My question is: will I be able to continue shaving? Should I just touch up the edge on a finishing hone? Am I could to have to essentially start the edge from scratch? Is there anything I can do to assess the level of damage before I put it on a rough stone? I've touched up my razors with a finishing hone multiple times, but I've yet to take on any honing besides final sharpening, so I'd rather avoid it if I can.
Thanks for any help guys.
