I honed it. Took it right through the progressions. It's evened out - slightly wider bevel on heal and toe. The razor shaves really well. Got a good (mostly) BBS in two passes. No irritation. It's not quite as smooth as my other Masters. I think it just needs a bit longer on a pasted strop. @Billyfergie, @lindyhopper66, @DaltonGang, @Arnout, @gssixgun - once again you gentlemen rock. Straight to the point, no-nonsense honing advice which really works for me. Thank you. (apologies if I missed anyone)
