First Bevels Ground!

[Randydb]

Not every question you can ask will be answered until you have actually completed a few knives...Many things are common sense and others you have to experience first hand by trial and error. I can explain how to drink a beer and what the buzz feels like from a 12 pack but you can't fully appreciate it until you've done it yourself.

There are a number of designs that I grind bevels on After Heat Treat no Pre heat treat grinding at all...That comes with experience.

Ha! My 17 year old graduated an was heading off to England to go to school for a year. I was chatting with her the one evening before she left and realized she had never had more than 2 drinks in an evening. It worried me that she might get drinking with friends in England and not know what 3 to 6 drinks would do to her. I could tell her, but she "couldn't fully appreciate it til she had done it." So we spent a couple evenings drinking together. First one was 5 drinks over 6 hours...for her, a solid buzz that built a bit but still mostly in control . Second night we did 6 shots in an hour and a bit. Falling down drunk for her and eventually throwing up. In the end it helped her understand some limits for herself that actually made her experience in England fun but safe too.
