Doc, the argument that a convex edge will not be as sharp as any other grind is basically a moot point IMO. look how many put crazy sharp convex edges on their knives. sure maybe not straight razor sharp... but that's impractical for field use anyway. Also, you may get just as much work done with a flat ground blade, BUT I do sometimes think that convex grind are a little more durable.
Either way, I voted yes because w/e the grind may be, I feel Busse and kin need some work to the edge.
Well, I only have my S5's.. and can't speak of other Busse makes... but mine are both shaving sharp...good enough... I wasn't trying to imply that one shouldn't resharpen their own property... or to change anyone's mind about what they like....I just think the convex edge argument is so academic that in terms of real world use, you are right.. its moot, anything that is sharp will work....I just think it's kind of a fad or fashion....
Doc
