What exactly is overhoned?
I've read several of the help files and have been hanging around the forums for a while, but, I still don't precisely understand what "overhoned" is. Most of what I've read describes how to test for it, but, nothing really described precisely what's happening to the steel at the edge of the blade.The only info I've gleened so far about it, is that it might have something to do with a wire edge.
So, Can someone please explain (sparing as few details as possible) what transformations the steel undergoes upon overhoning?
