Hey all, I am revisiting this thread because I should have my new Edge on Up PT50A tomorrow, and I wanna get testing!
My plan, as unscientific as it may be, is to sharpen, measure, cut, measure, cut, measure... and so on.
The cutting is the part that isn't very accurate, so I plan on at least trying to replicate the details for each cutting session.
I know the cutting board is likely to do the most dulling, so I will try to keep my cutting style the same at various parts along the edge, and with the same board.
I also plan on having a control blade for reference, in this case I will use a Shun-Ken Onion sharpened to the same initial sharpness.
(My Nikiri has about the same edge angle of 16*)
Any suggestions on what material I should cut in between measurements?
