The shoulder can be a pain, but there is no reason to grind it away. All you have to do is hone "short" of the shoulder. It's really not that hard to do.

Thanked: 56Hey there
If that came across my table, I would never grind that shoulder. Just my thoughts.

Thanked: 1936The reason I said to not practice on that one is that those big ole choppers are few and far in between when in any sort of descent shape, which yours appears to be. There are plenty of other razors out there that are more common to practice on. Yes, you have to practice to learn how to do it, but why not practice on a $20 razor or twenty before tackling a more priceless one. This razor is literally "worthy" of sending it to someone well versed in true restoration. The heel will need to be addressed and a bit of steel removed to get it "right" and smiling properly...but not too much, which is where all that practice comes in handy. Less is more...
