Here's my Ever-Ready 1924 on a Cooncat Bob Improved handle. I love the shave from this razor, but am quickly souring on it because a little nib of the blade sticks out from behind the stop. I end up nicking myself. Is there anything that can be done with the to keep the blade more centered behind the stops?
A few pictures would help figure out where the issue is. 1 looking down at the razor with blade loaded cap closed and 1 top down blade loaded cap open to start with should tell a lot.
I start a thread across the street. It the blade was slightly lifted causing the sharp corner to get me from behind the stop. It was suggested to bend the wings out a bit under the cap pushing it forward and it may have helped. I will need better light before I can see much. I will try and get better pics during the light but it is such a small bit that I am not sure my marginal cell camera will get it.
I will check across the street. If you don't see a post from me there please tag me in that thread. Same user name there as here.
I looked at where I know as across the street and didn't see it. My across the street may be different than yours though. I don't see an option to PM you but feel free to PM me. I'd be happy to help if I can.

SE Sunday's Shave Cold Water Rinse GZD Berber Stick Jayaruh #2 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Star Wedge CWR Pinaud Clubman My prep was just a cold water rinse. The GZD Berber Stick Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #2 Badger Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher razor with a Star Wedge blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Clubman After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... Postscript: This is a shoutout to @twhite, my go to guy for making things sharp. I sent him three wedges to be honed and sharpened and this Star wedge was among them. This was my first shave with it since it got home. I paired it with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher, and boy, this was a great shave. I showed the setup to the wife, and she sends her complements on the shave results. Rubbing my face, she says I look good.

7 O'clock single edge, modified Gem Ptfe Stainless blade, shave 3 Of all the strop razors this one maybe the most smoothest and easiest razor to shave with. Even though this is a 7 o'clock branded razor it was made by Autostrop. Not a perfect BBS shave but the lack of drama and irritation as the trade off is more than acceptable. If I had to use one strop razor on a daily basis except for special occasions this one would be it. Thankfully I don't so I won't.
