Competition Cutting Rules

[Fiddleback]

Does the "grind in one plane" rule rule out convex competition cutters?

 

[Jose Diaz]

Convex Grind knives are allowed in BladeSports Competitions.

The Grinding in one plane rule was created to avoid large abrupt bulges that may create stress risers and potential points of failure.

I have myself made and used convex ground in many competitions.

respectfully,
