Thread: Variable Spine Thickness

I have had razors with variable spine thickness. I measure to see how many layers of tape I need or not as that measurement is one to be plugged into an equation to determine bevel angle. I just average the readings out and go with that, so far no problems. Yes, on a lot of razors I have to do gymnastics while honing because of flaws in the razor. Anything with a lot of handwork in it's manufacture will not be perfectly consistent.
