I’ve got some prototypes of the new low angle adapter in. This piece allows for reducing the angle by approximately 7 degrees from what is stated on the degree bar. In the photos is pictured a cheap 4″ utility blade measuring .75″ from spine to edge. I’d love some feedback on this new accessory.
My main concern would be stability. I just reprofiled an S30V and was really pressing hard with the 100 stones (and it still took forever). My immediate thought was of the primary clamp releasing the secondary clamp during a down-stroke, and all kinds of bloody havoc breaking out (literally!). Then there’s the lesser issue of the secondary clamp (or knife) shifting during some hard work.
I’m betting these were primary concerns of yours as well, but since you asked. 🙂
