LOL, well that's ok - you always knew I'm THE enemy... I mean peace it all together - the politics, the goats, the razors.....

If you pay good, and I've already honed it, you are welcome to almost any razor I own Ivan!

What I pay!!! We've got new era in this country - under the upcoming presidency one of my requirements before I even consider the FDA job is that I get paid for any razor I get. And it will start with your mint W&B. I think I'll go easy on you and require you to pay me only 1000USD for giving it to me. And yes, once Mr. Douche meets my requirements and I start considering what else I need to require for processing or my application I won't be touching no hones no more

Anyways, I hope I can find some time this week to do the chipped frameback - I think it'll be fun to see the effect of various grits.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I'd say 400 wet/dry at worst. Or a DMT 325 grit if you have one (it is less aggressive than fresh sandpaper) but a 1000 grit stone would work.

If you are new to this you will make mistakes. And at 150 grit, those mistakes will cost you dearly.

If you use 1000 grit it will take some time, grnated, but then when the nick is gone your bevel will be ready for honing on the 4K norton.
And it will also give you the opportunity to learn correct honing strokes.

What are the odds of these two being in complete agreement!

Truly I'm saying to you, I have come to usher a new era - the goat will sleep with the wolf! And now you know that I am a uniter, not a divider! But beware, my time has not come yet.

I will insert my 1200 DMT here. A lot slower but I might end up with an edge after a couple of hours. Knife hones may be quick but so are mistakes.

Guys,

Wow, there is a range of advice here, from send it out for a pro restore to 150 grit.

Thanks for the advice. I am glad the majority think these can be honed out - even if the two processes came to the same end the honing seems less serious.

Actually, I don't know the difference in results to the blade between honing and grinding. There is still a lot for me to learn.

I still need to pick up a 4/8k.

I won't learn with these.

I will be moving next month so either I will deal with these this week or it will have to wait a month or two. Either way and what ever I end up doing I will post the picks.

Thanks for the affirmations too.

Eric
