Thread: deeper blade = sharper razor?

Again I mention that one should really read that thread I linked with actual measurements where it will become apparent rather quickly that there are no hard and fast rules or ratios...
The numbers are really all over the place but the average seems to be about 16 degrees as to the "Best" I really would not venture a guess...

The angle and bevel width in relation to sharpness has no relation, the quality of the steel is much more important... Razors only get so sharp, period and many/most can get there, the only question is how smooth they are at that sharpness level...


BTW please feel free to add more measurements to that thread, as you can see the more data we have, the better the conclusion becomes...
