Yeah, agreed - just not nearly as much fun.
I'll run a shorter series of tests tomorrow and post the results. I think I'll put a brass sleeve over a dowel so it can roll and draw the blade over that. I just pulled out an S35VN Native5 for this, and I'm planning on measuring 1) Freshly sharpened, 2) With a stropped burr (hopefully) applied, and 3) After drawing across the brass sleeve. If there's anything you'd like me to add to that, let me know.
