That would imply a minute concavity to the edge bevel.

You keep insinuating that I am defending Jarrod when in fact my calculation would actually back up your claim that the concave bevel thing has no real world impact.

I would ask you to read my posts properly before accusing me playing "Jarrod Say's".

So again a BS theory that Jarrod claimed on another forum yet no real hands on proof

Stop already

Honestly I think your high feelings over this issue are making you take my comments out of context.

Look there is a difference in whether a convex hone would prescribe enough of an arc on a razors bevel in the real world, versus theory.

My calculation literally shows that even in theory, the arc prescribed is infintesimally small and probably doesn't make a difference. In reality it's probably less than that.

You're claiming that I am saying the opposite of what I am.
