Jimmy i always thought angle of the blade depends spine and edge.
it is mostly will stay same as you hone spine and edge wears same time.
Now i have nothing against it.
This is the easiest way to explain.
lets say you hone and finish edge without taping.
stones are X and next is Y.
you check the edge you see X edge is how it should be but
then you check Y and see edge looks like you have used tape when you hone this blade in fact you are not.
now i am thinking why in the world Y stone should act this way?
sharpness of the both blades almost same.
This is new to me and i don't understand so far.
i am thinking this may be the big reason some Japanese stones are so expensive.
why type edge they produce.
