    Nice straight razors.....
    Well first off.... sanding. Start at a higher grit and see what happens. The lower the grit, the more aggressive it will on the blade. Also leaves deeper marks. That's why I said start at a higher grit and work down if needed. Take your time and work it until you like what you are seeing.

    Is it over there or over yonder?

    I prefer to start with a high grit and only move down if necessary. My reasoning for this is that using lower grits leaves a lot of room to loose medal that you don't need to loose. Very important to prevent loosing blade etchings.
