BESS value vs apex angle
#1
I've not yet achieved BESS values below 200 for edges with obtuse apex angles, e.g., 30 dps or greater.

Versus acute edges, I'm guessing obtuse edges require greater precision at all stages in the sharpening protocol, for similar reasons as why obtuse edges have poorer edge retention ... but that's just speculation on my part.

What are the best BESS scores folks have achieved for highly obtuse apex angles?
