I am starting f rom scratch to regrind and sharpen some old Buck Brothers chisels.
As I recall my reading about the trade off of bevel angle, the optimum for any given blade is a function of the "relative " physicals the steel; as I recall japanese blades are best sharpened to a different angle that European.
Does anyone know what the original grind angle was for Buck Brothers chisels, and whether this is the best choice based on current knowledge ?
