>enough to matter? i mean a sharp edge is really really small, even a small variance will be enought to make it dullish
When I mean protect it I mean in terms of chipping, and even then it only limits the size of chipping that occurs, not in terms of dulling.
My understanding was/is that harder knives dull slower but chip easier and vice versa.
>dunno man, i worked with cutting tools in manufacturing and when i am told this shit doesnt make sense to me, the scales are wrong
My guess is the HRC rating is just invented, they probably looked at what VG10 can achieve then picked the upper end of that and called it a day.
The really bad thing is the low grind angle, which makes it even more likely to get damaged. Probably not a great choice for a beginner.
