What type of edge should I put on my teeth?

Cheers! Be sure to get a vid of it in action!

Why not go all out for optimum performance?

or ...

My vote is for flat grind with partial serrations.

And a choil.

All the best,

Whichever you choose, I want a video of you slamming your new tooth's edge into cinderblock! then see if you can scrape off some arm hair

 

[myright]

Serrated all the way brother!!

My wife is at a dental conference right now, and I had her ask the fellow outdoors dentist. They think about 200 grit, with a slight toothy edge, will do alot of the work you need. She recommended to use a mill file as another option.

Convex the tooth. You'd be the only one with a convex ground tooth out here. I dare you.

 

[ohski]

Just get a "grill" that you can swapp out...

Do you plan to do any batoning?

Full convex is the way to go. :thumbup: :thumbup:



Don't forget the sawback and gut hook options,

I would prefer if you had all your teeth removed... then I would take you camping... then I would boil down some Labrador Tea to a fairly strong concentration and tell you it was good for your immune system... then I would.............. well, you'll find out. Bring some mouthwash.

As long as it looks tactical...

Penetrator tip !!!!!

Should be a toothy one, as they are teeth.

 

[Bridger]

Hmmmm, sounds like the HRC of your tooth may be too high. Have you considered trying to temper it to a lower hardness in an oven? On second thought, better send it off to Paul Bos for the ht. You can always use the brass rod test to find out when you've hit the right hardness.

Reminds me of the night when my molar broke while eating nuts. The tooth was so jagged and razor sharp that it was cutting into my tongue and mouth tissue.

I had no choice but to go down to the shop and use one of my small fine files to file off the edge. It fixed the problem long enough to get to the dentist the following week.

I chipped one of my front two teeth once. It was only about a 1/32" chip out of the corner. I had the dentist grind the bottom of both teeth level, then slightly bevel the angles. I grind my teeth while I sleep, and after a few months, the appropriate bevel was back.
