A couple of months ago I bought a Dovo 5/8 half hollow round tip straight razor. I had it honed by the shop that sold it to me. I wanted to start with a properly sharpened edge before I attempted any honing myself. I looked at the blade edge with 10x jewelers loupe and was surprised to see the bevel of the razor's edge varied in width. Most of the edge was uniform but an inch of the edge, about a third of the way from the tip, narrowed to a very thin width? I don't know if it matters, but I can't quite get my head around it. The bevel angle is set by the spine. If the honing is done evenly on both sides shouldn't the edge be straight and the bevel be a uniformed width from on end to the other? Does this mean the original grinding of the blade wasn't exactly even? Is it a flaw? Does it even matter? Sometimes looking with a jewelers loupe distorts your perspective.
