Honing of Warner Birdwing

[Razordoc]

I am the lucky owner of 2 of Mr Warner's Birdwing Razor's. I love these razors. They are absolutely spectacular but I am having a great deal of difficulty getting them tuned in. it has even reached a point where I sent one to Lynn and the other to Tim. I know this is hard to believe but neither Lynn nor Tim Z could achieve a much better result. Lynn actually gave up and sent the ATS 34 back with an apology. I reaaly love these razors and would really like to use them not just admire them from afar. I have a Norton4000/8000, a Chinese, a Belgian Coticle, 2 Eschers, and all the usual pastes. Somebody help!!!!!!!! Joel, or anybody that has honed these babies. BTW I am including photos

I'm sure I read that Joel said it really is a difficult razor to hone and you really need to know what you're doing, I'm sure someone will answer soon to help. Good luck with them, there gorgeous razors!
