What is “Flat Bottom” sharpening?
Flat Bottom sharpening is an old concept that was not put to use until a short time ago. The idea is to put a flat surface between the edges of the blade instead of the circular hollow used in the standard type of sharpening. The purpose of this method of sharpening is to obtain increased glide and speed without sacrificing edge control. More detailed information on the Flat Bottom Form Dressing can be found here.
