Thread: Can anything be done?

You could grind it back to the crack and create a shorter edge with a backcut design

Looks like you are the proud owner of a thumb knotch..

Mine had larger crack, i grinded it down using a dremel.

Grind it into a smile at the heel. Grind no more than necessary. You don't have to grind out all the crack. If you grind too little, the blade will move back and forth on either side of the crack and it will not hone uniformly across the crack. If you have honed enough, the blade will not move at the crack and the razor will probably hone sufficiently at that spot. Even if you turn it into a smile, and don't hone it from the crack to the heel, as said above you probably don't or won't use that area much when shaving.

You can recover a shaving razor. It will be ugly though. And, it might or might not be worthwhile.
