If you didn't see it

Sonny,
Just in case you didn't see it I posted on Just talking under "printer" post.
The edge grind on three gouges.
As it nearly made me late for work...it takes me forever to work out how to post pics and get them under a hundred killer bites.
They chew me up anyway. I wanted to know that you knew they were there.
No feedback required!!

Cheers limmmer

http://wowjoke.com/gif/white/1332.gif On this so called double bevel grind. What is the reasoning behinh it ? Is it to minimize material removed when touching up the edge or something else?

Good Morning Dick,
Well.... You ever use a cold chisel? Purely for strength, my reasoning behind it.
Plus you saw the little Baldor Lathe? One is a felt wheel or more correctly a cone. The other is a brush.
Either gets a dab of rouge and they buff a bevel to a mirror edge.
Other than that, no real reason. Other than it seems to work for me. :)

I guess it could be but I always looked at a cold chisel cut as a crushing/ shearing cut unlike the pure shearing cut of a wood chisel but what the sh!t I'm still learning.(I do remember an old deer hunter who sharpened his hunting knives with that blunt bevel and claimed they would hold the edge longer, now that makes sense to me if you can keep thoses tattered edges aligned. http://wowjoke.com/gif/white/1332.gif

We are a sordid lot.
But Limmmmer showed me his, so I showed him some of mine. LOL!
Limey brought up the "T" word out of bounds. Naughty, naughty!
He thought he could sneak one by me. Unh-uh.....
So fiddle-fart.
I'm always thinking outside the box anyway.
