convex or bevel? POLL

[mmarkh]

I touch up all my knives with a loaded strop so I guess convex. I use a Sharpmaker sometimes and then finish with my strop.

I vote for thin edge bevels. If you want to waste a lot of time and fuss around with mouse pads, have fun.

Do I prefer Convex or bevel? Yes.

In other words, it depends on the blade, and what I'm going to use it for. Some of mine are convexed, and some are beveled: so convex or bevel? Yes.

I just find it funny if most seem to like convex why don't the knife makers make it standard?

It takes a little longer and is more work. Bevels can be done more easily with a jig.

I don't care, because I am a noob. But since I am just learning to sharpen, bevel/V-grind works better for me.
