Ontario Rat 1 Edge Angle

[Ontario/Esee Knives]

Hey,

I've been thinking of reprofiling my ontario Rat 1 but first I was wondering what the factory inclusive angle was and what would be a good new angle for the ontario rat 1. I was thinking of reprofiling it to about 22 degrees per side.

It's all a matter of preference, a 40 degree angle will be much more robust and require less sharpening.

i just re profiled my new one to a 28 degree works really well
