Gotcha, thanks. it something that the sharpener should have noticed? Could it have been avoided?A bad grind can be many things. It could be different angles on either side, it could be different heights of primary bevels on either side, uneven grind thickness, uneven distal taper, heck some knife makers don't even do any distal taper on their knives when It's a grind shape that should have distal taper.
