150 gf sharpness

[grepper]

I probably didn’t explain that well.  It’s not that if the surface is nicked the media just falls in half, but rather, if I my understanding is correct, the maximum force required to penetrate the surface of the test media will not increase as the media is severed regardless of the bevel angle because the initial maximum force required to penetrate the surface will completely sever the media and does not increase thereafter.  That initial force is the sharpness reading.   
 
I’m sure Mr. EOU will respond.
