Too much science on this forum makes us too serious at times.
General public do have some misconceptions about the knife edges.
Knife enthusiasts have their own.
I myself was haunted by quite a few through my sharpening journey.
I hope you can name a few about knives and sharpening.
Not for disputing, only to share what you know, what you've heard.
No proving is needed, just name it.
Realizing this or that is a myth is fun.
We've just come across one last week:
Myth - Spring-loaded steels steel
As Mark noted, they hardly hit the edge - "It's very natural to draw your blade too deeply, so the wires ride against the shoulder of the primary bevel. Even the guy who demonstrated it for me did exactly that."
