Mr. KG,
I sharpen for a local butcher in my area. He is old school in that he only uses Forschner/Victorinox knives with 20DPS bevels. I told him about your testing and he agreed to try a 12DPS angle on one of his boning knives.
Using the Wicked Edge, I couldn't get down to 12DPS even with the high angle adapter. 13.5 was the best I could do with a BESS score of 83 (lowest I've ever achieved.) I dropped it off this morning and I'll post again in a week or two.
Thanks for your detailed testing!
Ed K.
