The standard used to determine the sharpness of knives is called the bess: brubacher edge sharpness scale. this scale was developed by mike brubacher, owner of edge on up. he has a background in sensor and test development in various industries. in 2012 he started developing a standard that could measure the sharpness of knives and needles. With a balance of acceptable properties, mora 511 steel is regarded as a suitable steel for knife blades. it has admirable qualities including good toughness, commendable edge retention, commendable edge retention, and good corrosion resistance. the steel’s resistance to corrosion makes it appropriate for outdoor and maritime conditions, and.

The mora 511 is the remaining production version of one of my favorite knives, the mora 510. it is identical to the now discontinued 510, except for the fact that it has a rather prominent finger guard. i thought it was worth a review. specifications: knife length: 8 1 4 inches (210 mm). The 511 546’s blade is elegant, lightweight, and well balanced. it measures 3 1 2″ long by 5 8″ high, and the center of balance doesn’t tip toward the blade. you will be impressed when you see how easily a boy can shave a feather stick with these sharp, well controlled little blades.
