Why do the Zero Tolerance models have a swedge grind? What are the advantages and disadvantages? I can obviously see the pictures, but cannot for instance tell if this is flat all the way to the edge without a separate edge face, or how it differs from a saber grind.
I also do not know how, of if, this relates to a, Swedge, an iron chisel with a beveled edge, used for making the groove round the shoe of a horse; or a swedge, crease, or concave tool, a mold through which the hot bar is pulled by the smith, whilst it is hammered by the striker.
In short, I would appreciate some clarification. Thank you.
