Hollow and convex grind in one knife. http://www.scrapyardknives.com/ubbthread...e=0&fpart=1 JYD #56 Scrap Yard Sword Club #00

I think the edges could be made to be very close in thickness. a lot of blades that are full flat grinds are more narrowa, so with the wide design of the sod it will be as sharp or could be as sharp as another full flat grind like the dmdc or maybe the S6. I would have to know blade width to be sure. not thickness but width of the blade.the choppweiler is incredible and has a saber grind. the sarsquatch is the same length with a full flat grind. in the sod I want the saber. S7 is not cutlery steel and is a poor choice for a slicer. don't kill me but S7 is tool steel. I love the cgyk but for slicing I go cpm154, 154cm, other stainless, 52100, 1095 and others, not in that order.

The bevel for a saber grind knife starts around the middle and tapers down to the edge, giving it a more obtuse angle. Full Height grind tapers from the spine down to the edge. There's both advantages and disadvantages for both grinds. Saber grinds are generally heavier due to have more steel in the middle, therefore it is tougher; and full height grinds are lighter and cut better due to the more acute angle. For me, I don't mind the extra weight of saber grind and the extra bit of toughness, plus it's a better base if I ever plan to fully convex it, #6. Not to be a critical or technical but 3 is actually a scandi grind because it is a dual single bevel or simply a simple bevel but not to be confused with 4 which is a single bevel (meaning only one grind on one side) chisel grind. Number 5 is the saber and most grind these days include a second bevel which is very different from a scandi. Also, I think Pink did state that the saber grinds can vary from knife type to knife type. 3/4, 7/8, 1/2, etc., etc..
