HRC: Edge is between 55 and 60 hrc. 60 bites but the 55 does not have any bite. The spine is between 50 and 55. The 55 bits and the 50 does not.
Edge Bevels: Goniometer shows roughly 8 degrees for the secondary bevel. The bevel is mostly even except near the tip where it becomes very uneven. After sharpening the Goniometer still shows 8 degrees but a shiny secondary bevel has shown between 18 and 25 degrees. I’m not sure I am using the too right.
