    Default Setting the Bevel, a vague definition.

    I dont remember where i saw this, perhaps in a book, anyway it was written that the definition "Bevel Setting" was vague an missing accuracy, and it was suggested to divide in 3 specific categories.

    Bevel rebuilt = After removing large chips, breadknifing, serrated razor edge, rebuilding a complete bevel from scratch.

    Bevel repair= Working out some rust and minor chips.

    Bevel correction = On a dull razor just refreshing each side of the bevel. To expose new metal.

    Unmistakably a big difference between a "correction" VS "rebuilt", and yet we still use the same definition.
