Dennis a Question, or anyone else that knows:

On a FFG, like Rajah or say a Manix, what are you using to find if the knife is sitting at exactly 90 degrees to the vice.

On a table saw for example, I can use 90 angle and visually see when i tilt the till it touches, or drop an angle cube on it.

But with a FFG, we have a gradual angle built into the knife, so the angle cube on the knife would be off right? And a straight edge of a 90 wouldn’t be practical either.

Are you simply adjusting until an angle cube on either side of the FFG has the same measurement?

Hope its not a dumb question, but have been wondering how to accurately know I have some bigger, thicker FFG blades perfectly centered.
