Sharpening angle

[Heathrow]

Does anybody know at what angle the original SR-1A is sharpened (factory edge).

Thanks for your time.

Factory grind is 14 degrees per side FYI.

Weird...my SR-1D was convexed from the factory and I thought that was the norm. Took a lot of work to reprofile but mine cuts a lot better with the regular V edge.

I can't really say - I got my info from Moletta himself. Maybe they switch it up.

If convex can be measured with angle... It design an angle of approx 14 degrees per side.
