Thread: Taping the EDGE

Jim, perhaps you'd get a better response if you post this in the forge - I suspect that people like Mike Blue, Josh, LR Harner, etc., will have a good idea of blade geometry and specifically how thick their spine has to be relative to the width of the razor. I would suspect that people who make razors have read up on this or experiemented...

Just a though

Mark,
i thought about that but then carefully read the stickies and asked in the chat where the best place to place this was
i had thought the forge as well but since i was not making a blade or truly grinding it ... we came to the conclusion that it was a honing technique... besides i did not want a "timeout" for posting in the wrong area.

Nope i had stopped reading that thread awhile ago... sorry. I just read it all and i will still use this method i think... although i am less committed to taping the spine then i once was.
