Regardless of what you call it, the secondary bevel aka micro-scandi or micro-convex is doing 100% of the cutting. If the micro version of a scandi and convex work so well and are the "preferred" actual working edge of knife makers, why use a flat or hollow grind at all? Furthermore, with flat and hollow grinds there is actually less steel behind the secondary bevel - again, why are they used? If you doubt me, just weigh two identically profiled blades where one is convex or scandi beveled and one is flat or hollow ground.
I have heard no discussion about the fact that blade geometry changes each and every time you resharpen a hollow or flat beveled blade. Is the blade at optimum geometry when its new or when sharpened the 3rd , 4th, 5th, 13th time...etc - which is the magic resharpening number? With a convex or scandi beveled blade, geometry remains constant. I don't believe this point can be contended.
I obviously don't have the knife making experience many of you have brought to bear on this discussion. The fact is, most of you have forgotten more than I know or care to know about making knives and what is obvious to you is sometimes obscure to me. Thanks again for your explainations and patience.
