Thread: Me + dremel = disaster

I hand polished a nice Morley 5/8 barbers notch and it was looking pretty good. then I noticed some Lee Valley honng compound next to,my dremel, and said: why not? it should work out fine.

Loaded up the buffing wheel, and polished it up. It actually looks nice, except,for the two,chips it put in the blade, rig near the heel. I felt the wheel catch and pull around the corner, but didn't notice the damage until I came inside.

I'm hoping I can hone it out . If I end up 're- shaping the heel a bit, the rest of the blade is in good shape, so it should be usable.

Another teachable,moment, I guess.
