How to measure "toothy," instead of "sharp?" - TZ750G - 06-12-2021 I am pretty new here, and I am sure you can tell that from my posts....... I have recently invested - and it's my best-ever sharpening investment - in the PT50. After some flailing around, I was able, with careful attention to protocols, to get one of my little "super-steel" SPYDERCO knives down to a (admittedly brief) lifetime best of BESS 36 ! With that under my belt, I can give more attention to the part of sharpening that I CAN'T seem to measure: "TOOTHY." Sharpness as measured to BESS seems fairly straightforward to me now, but I read folks that DON'T measure to BESS talking about how their "toothy" knives are better at cutting than knives "BESS" sharp. How do we measure that ? |
