Thread: Crumbling edge

I have a nice 5/8's shoulderless razor. A W.B. Co. Toledo full hollow, made in Gemany! I have gotten ten to twenty great shaves with this little beauty! Yesterday as I was stropping her I lifted the spine on one of my passes. Damn!! So I go back to linen just to make sure and back to leather again. As I am shaving I notice my blade isn't the same. It's shaving me alright but I seem to be missing a hair here and there that I don't normally miss, also the blade is not exactly pulling but something was not quite right, so I stropped mid shave and noticed a slight improvement, but still not right. As I am wiping the blade before I put it away I notice the light reflecting off the edge wasn't right, so I whipped out my trusty magnifying glass and find about a half an inch of edge near the toe is crumbling! I have never had this happen after so many fine shaves and have only had it happen once on an old beat up W & B after honing! does anyone have any ideas what might have gone wrong?
