I've got to agree with that! At first I thought sharpening to 100 was amazing. Now it seems to be commonplace. Then I thought 50 was amazing, but some of our members achieve that on a regular basis. Now we see 4. I guess I should not be surprised considering the progression, but still, as EOU said, "4 or 24 - it was a darn sharp edge and an extremely skilled job of sharpening."
Four or 24 is amazing. Add to that it was supposedly hand sharpened and it's even more impressive.
Is EOU going to have to develop testers accurate to .001 grams so that these edges can be differentiated from each other?
