I have been following the discussion about smooth or toothy edges. I don't recall anything on Moses' stone tablets which prohibited have both smooth and toothy.
I have half a dozen old pocket knives. Most are older than I am, and I do not know the history of most of them. I suspect most were originally purchased at aa exclusive purveyor of fine cutlery like
WT Grant or the local hardware store.
One knife stands out. Part of the outside covering has broken. One of the three blades snapped off in the middle before I remember. in spite of this rough treatment, a past owner kept the knife clean and sharp. It has a "Mastercraft" name plate. This three blade design makes me wonder why I could not sharpen one blade toothy with the ceramic "steel" Steve gave me. Another blade could be sharpened smooth with my heavenly hone from Mark Reich.
Why not?
