    Default Got rid of that chip on my Frederick Reynolds

    Thanks for the encouragement, Ed. It's not finished by any means, but for mere minutes of work, I like the progress so far.

    Looking good so far

    Just a small piece of advice here from bad experience

    DO NOT try and get it toooooo perfect with the dremel, get it close, and then tweak it and smooth it in by hand

    Are you going to round off that heal or live dangerously

    Looks great. I had to cut the toe off a razor that was badly chipped. Rescue is always better than the scrap bin.

    Kinda wondered about that myself seeing that most classic shoulderless blades have a rounded heel. Looks very good though.

    No, in fact, I have coined a term for that:

    Jacob's point

    I'm using the interpretation of Jacob's name: "heel catcher"can be interpreted

    See above. Also, I had experience with a square point heel. I like them.
