    I lost the "+", it is now about 15/16 where the crack was.

    I am surprised. I would have guessed closer to 1/8" narrower.

    I thought the same, I felt like I was chasing it for a while, but the tape measure doesn't lie.

    It is nice when things turn out better than expected. I wish you many great shaves with it now.

    Nice it turned out well!

    Do you know why it cracked in the first place?

    I'm still learning but I think the grain lines indicate some buffing, maybe the person I bought it from tourqued it a bit. Or, I may have caused it while setting the bevel, as this was maybe the 20th razor I've honed.
