The grinding looks excellent! You seem to have a very steady hand
It appears that you have a single concave grind on the blade. That is referred to as either a wedge grind or a 1/4 hollow grind.
But,,,you extended the double shoulder all the way to the edge. That will interfere with honing. The bottom of the double shoulder needs to end approx 1/8" above the edge. Look at some pics of new razors to see the transition.

Very nice work! A steady hand indeed! Looks a factory job! I am thinking the stabilizer should remain to the bottom until the tang is finished and final edge shaping, bevel is determined. Lots of strength down there until then. Looking forward to the results!
