    Hi Charles thankyou for that , I don't get in here that often so miss the cheaper blades, but will keep searching, sometimes the hunt is half the fun.

    I feel your pain, I did the exact same thing to my first razor which coincidentally was a W&B as well. Fortunately in my case it only left two minor dings which lynn was able to remove for me. I definitely learned my lesson though, dremals and razors do not mingle kindly!

    OMG, this thread is EXACTLY like one I posted not 6 months ago. Them dang dremmels are just plain trouble. I have ruined 2 razors and almost a 3rd that Glen was able to save for me. I learned how to breadknife on my DMT the hard way!!

    +1 again for Larry for some cheap, really sharp razors.

    Good luck mate!!

    were you holding the blade in your hand? I have not tried it yet but using a dremmel I think i would have the blade in a vice of some sort.

    Hi there I normally have the blade on a flat surface , but after polishing the blade I thought I would just do it one more time, and then it happend. Life is full of lessons we just have understand which ones to learn from.
