I've never considered notching a Wapi, well intentionally that is. The geometry of the Wadi will require a large amount of steel to be ground off to get the toe of the blade perpendicular to the spine. You will have a lot smaller razor by about 7/16ths. I don't think I'd care to do as the time it will take to grind the steel without letting heat up to the point of losing temper will make it a slow process. Something like a W&B 1/2 or 1/4 ground in 6/8 would able to dissipate the heat more efficiently and you wouldn't change the geometry of the blade. Wapis are just too sweet a blade to mess with.
