BushcraftBrainTrust · Jul 4, 2009

Jeremy, can you give me a brief lesson on the advantages/disadvantages of a hollow grind vs. a full flat grind. On face value it seems the hollow could be sharper while the flat could be be a more durable blade.

Guyon Thumped me, manes!
I want his auto-graph.

Jerm---Go ahead and TRY to explain blade geometry to Brian...

Hollow is for Slicing and Convex is for Prying or staking.

My brain is so strained I can't remember if you were first or last on my Camp XL pass around. Wait, maybe I'm confusing you with the post King, Guyon, and your not even in my pass around.
