Leave the edge as thin as possible, and let the end user decide how he wants to shape it.
you can always remove steel, but you can't add it on..
You can sharpen a zero edge into whatever edge you want..
I assume you're talking about the Zero Bevel grind talked about in this article?
Zero Bevel Grind The poblem with this type of grind, as stated in the article, is that it weakens the structural strength of the blades' edge. Dans' whole premise on his knives are that they are incredibly strong, based upon how he designs them. If you want to put a zero grind on your blade after you purchase it, fine, but IMHO, I don't think he should be held accountable for an edge that compromises the designed strength of his blades.
Furthermore, I honestly wouldn't want to buy knife with this edge on it. There would be a lot less steel on a knife designed on this type of grind, than there would be on a knife done in the traditional manner that Dan has followed.
Trust that Dan has done his homework, and knows what he is doing, in putting the edge on his knives that he currenly does. Mod it if you want to, but allow the customers the choie of removing that steel from their knives.
