Knifes develops from the climate. The climate is not only temperature, it demand whar trees grows and how hard the trees wood are, it demands what type of game lives there and also what type of food. All those things together creates a blade design and also a handle design. In cold climate you do not like to have a metal handle or metal outside your handle.
So, if you live as north I live you would live in the middle of Alaska. If you do not - your wood, games, fish, and so on are different - and then you use traditional knifes that also are different
but give the same functionallity as my knifes in my climate...
IF it is a soldier that point out things for the grinder/blacksmith he cannelloni things from his profession and way of fighting with his weapon that no blacksmith understand becouse tye blacksmith have another profession? For example "i use this part of the edge to slice thruu helmets and I need a steeper edge here with more materials behind the edge - or "make it just a little more pointy here"
The oval hrinding wheel gives convex edges when you hold your edge in the same angle and just follow the wheel up and down in the oval form. If the knife was fixed in position on a guide rod and leaning against the edge - the edge would be convex - and it is, in that way, possible to get wanted degrees on the cutting edge. With a fixed and adjustble pivot point it is possible to get also wanted convex sphere in degrees - and everything can later be maintained in exactly the same degrees. I so not know if they did this - but I can see that it will work fine - and I think that they also could se it.
I can surley survive in your area if you have a comfortble soft chair, a good whisky and a fire burning in the fireplace. Utvisas easy to survive in my age in that way.
If you come to Sweden if cause yiu visit me - and I fix the chair and the fire - you fix the whisky
