    Never, if one is lucky. I think breadknifing should be unlearned.

    Yeah, edge assessment and edge restoration should definitely be in there.

    I say edge restoration because I consider many other areas of restoring to be a separate skillset.

    I do not know what else to call it...I thought it was my signature when I set up my profile, but it hangs out up there above where I don't have a badge

    Hmm. I think I'm in my sophomore slump. I know what to do but lately I'm moving a bit backward. Experience tells me I might be coming up to a breakthrough. I'm beginner to intermediate right now.
    Nothing is as it ever was.
