wedge or microtome
Hi guys,
Here a blade which confuse me. I can't decide if it's a wedge kind of blade or a microtome?
When I look to each side there is no difference but when I look at the point it looks like a microtome, but still not sure that's why I want to ask what you think.
Some,pictures, ( I'm sorry I'm on my phone and I can not upload the pics on SRP )

My eye says microtome. It looks hollowed on one side but not the other, and not very hollowed either.Last edited by RezDog; 12-18-2015 at 11:10 PM.

I really can't decide. I will hone it Sunday. But first I put it on a plate surface and each side touch well, I didn't see any difference.
Btw do you have any tips to hone a microtome if it's the case?

Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 3222Sure hard to tell but looks like a wedge to me. Be interesting to see how this finally turns out.

I'd bet it's a wedge. On the Microtome one side would be straight. That's not what I'm seeing there.
