That's the way we see it Jan. If Brad is correct we'll be able to definitively segregate hardness from any potential effects of grinding. This we did not expect to be able to do so clearly. Stay tuned.
We're going to be interested in the effect on sharpness as well. Complicating this is the question of how effectively we'll be able to deburr the edge prior to heat treat. We won't mind using a plain leather strop on the edge after heat treat if it is beneficial. We just need to end up with a post heat treat edge in the 150-300 arena and then we can test.
