What is a blades edge geometry mean? I thought I understood the concept, but when I see how it's used in magazines, I'm not sure I understand.

Go to the knowledge base part of the forum, on the front page. The first FAQ from the most excellent author Joe Talmadge is on Blade Geometry. Well worth reading. Walt

I think it basicly just refers to the shape of the edge in general, at least that is how I use it. Conventional edges are triangular in shape, and the geometry refers to the width of the base, and the height, which determine the included angle of the edge.
