Will This Wade & Butcher Throw a Temper Tantrum?

- In this video I sharpen a Wade & Butcher razor that belongs to @HDShaves . The razor has not really taken a great edge in the past. We had a hunch that there might be an issue with temper at the edge, and that a couple of sharpenings of the razor might remove that bad metal and reveal steel that would take and hold a good edge.

Greg I love your videos! I'm not sure if you try to make them like this but they feel very relaxing, the way you explain things is also very calming. Cheers!
Thank you Sean. Others have told me that my videos are relaxing. I have no idea why they are. Certainly, watching someone move a razor back and forth while droning on about sharpening won't be exciting :) Anyway, I generally have no plan. As with this video, if I have some sharpening to do, and I think it might be of interest, I just hit the record button.
Thanks for the informative video. I enjoy the work that you put into them. So would the edge benefited from jointing the edge on the stone with the temper issues?
Very good question. Yes, jointing would definitely help. One of the benefits of having this ridiculous microscope is that I can adjust my sharpening process based upon edge inspection. I made heavier-than-usual slurries counting on their bead-blasting effect on the apex and I spent much more time inspecting the 4K edge than I normally would. Had I seen any edge anomalies, I would have gone back to the 4K, jointed the edge, and proceeded from there.
