I cut and shaped this blank with a handheld dremel tool. I know the steel is not ideal for holding a razors edge and that the thickness is going to be a problem with honing. I would like to experiment with this blank and see how it ends up shaving.

I have breadknifed the edge on glass+sandpaper and it is ready for a bevel.

What kind of bevel would you put on this knife for shaving?

What kind of ergo mods would you apply to this blank? (gimping?)

I have no experience with straights, how should I shape the heel and tip of the edge?

I have very limited tools, how should I thicken the spine to aid in honing? I was thinking of expoxying a pseudo spine or something.
