    I drew a line from the center of the spine to the edge splitting the blade in half. I then drew a line splitting the frame in half perpendicular to the edge. From the intersection you have to sides of a right triangle. Your side opposite and your side adjacent. 8mm and 29 mm respectively. Using the pathagorean theorem we find the hypotenuse to be 30.08 mm which gives us the the distance from the point of contact on the hone to the edge.

    Now to find the half angle I used the equation

    Sin(x)=opposite/hypotenuse
    Where x= halft the cutting angle.

    So simplified this is x=sin^-1(8/3.08)
    X=15.42°

    Being that's the half angle. We multiply by 2 giving us a whopping 30.84°
