I zero ground edge is not going to have more steel at all...
your picture just shows an edge that is longer for some reason...
an edge with a secondary bevel will be thicker and have more metal throughout... there is no getting around it.
However, you CAN make an edge "thicker" so to speak, by regrinding the zero edge, and putting a more steep secondary bevel on it...
Exactly like in martin Swinkles picture... look, you can create a thicker edge out of a thinner one.
He drew it out for you all to see.

I'd LOVE a nice zero edge on all the LE knives for sure!
It's fitting of them... besides we all see the performance difference that it made for vic's knives, and isn't "superior performance to price ratio" (keyword: performance) Dans slogan?
maybe he should do it to some cg knives too! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
so many people complain about the knives edge being too thick, and them having to re profile it... well don't you think we should give those guys a break? now the people who want a thicker edge will have to re profile. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
