Warped blade. How should I fix it?
Hi guys,
I've just gotten the restoration bug recently. I haven't really been shaving with a straight all that long, I've had my great-grandfather's for a bit over a year but shaving has been mix and match with mostly de's up till now. I don't get BBS shaves yet, but I don't cut myself and razor burn is down a lot.
Anyways, here's my first its one of my great-granddads (who I'm named after, how cool)
It is fully together and I just started honing it. It has shaved okay (different topic).
Anyways, onto the real question.
I picked up a Griffon Carbomagnetic and got it to mirror polish and in some scales and started trying to hone it up. But it seemed to always get a frown. So I finally looked at it edge on. The spine is bent, about halfway from toe to heel is where the bend occurs. It is a slight bend, but consistently causes a frown. Is it fixable? If so how?
Thanks,
Dave
