Ok.... Question..... I noticed when looking at some straight razor edges....some are fairly large and others are small. Some guys use tape and others don't. I know that over time the spine gets worn down and when people hone, the edges seem to get really "wide". I like the look of a smaller edge. Is there a difference between a larger or wider edge/ bevel and smaller one? I see this mainly on older vintage wedges. Back in the day were the edges really large from the factories?

This is something I have wondered about from viewing pics on ebay, others sites, and posts.
Maybe it is a matter preference too?
