Thread: Fixable blade?

OK, so I haven't been here a while as I nicked my blade a while ago and put SR shaving to the side for a while. But now I'm slowly starting to get the itch back to try it again. Big question that will determine my next step is can the blade that I have be fixed?

It's a 5/8 blade

yes it can be saved pot 1 layer of black tape on the spine and ues a low grit hone to set a belve and hone till the chip is gone then hone it back up to where you want it to be.if you cant hone send me a pm and iwill send you my address and i will fix it if you pay the shipping.

Yes absolutely...

Yep, it looks like you'll be ok... pretty good guys here at the forum huh?

If there is no crack extending up from the chip it can be honed out. Unless you're experienced at honing you might be well served to go to the classifieds under member services and send it out for a pro to hone it.
