Hey folks,
I’ve been spending too much iPad time recently researching guided sharpening systems and stones and generally just geeking out on sharpness.
As a result, I came across a fascinating website with a plethora of information that I really wanted to pass along.
The site is https://scienceofsharp.com/home/ and I’m only 5% or so through reading various articles. Here is the general outline:
Quantifying Sharp
Definitions of Sharp and Keen
Sharp and Keen part 2
A Comparison of Several Manufactured Blades
The Bevel Set
The Honing Progression
The Diamond Plate Progression
It’s too big of a jump!
SWARF!
Abrasion rate vs “Grit”
Grit, Scratches and Sub-Surface Damage – Part 1
What is a Burr? – part 1
What is a Burr? – part 2
Burr Removal – part 1
What Does Stropping Do?
What Does Steeling Do? (part 1)
What Does Steeling Do? (part 2): The Card Scraper
Abrasive Particles Under the SEM
Optical vs Electron Microscopy
Diamond Plate break-in – part 1
Diamond Plate break-in – part 2
The Pasted Strop – part 1
The Pasted Strop – part 2
