Pretty sure my knife isn't overground, but the problem is the same as if it was. My Masamoto has a small part just before the heel that does not hit the cutting board flat. I think it was me using a ceramic rod and not starting from the heel. I tried to fix this for quite a while on a 220 grit stone but I think I made it worse then I sort of made it a little better. Basically I spent about an hour to get back to where I started. Any tips for this? Should I just grind the whole back 3rd of the blade for ages and eventually it will flatten itself? Something else I noticed is the impact the burr has. Should I deburr occasionally when doing this? Any tips are appreciated
