I recently started to work to figure out an effective way to test sharpness of a blade. During that time I started with a Lyman pull gauge before coming across the Edge on Up. I reached out to Mike Brubacher on the use of their device for edge testing for reviews on the "Blade Banter" channel. He said that I would be able to make a posting here to get some suggestions.
I tried to put together a fixture type of system and initially I was playing with the use of dental floss sticks initially, then using fishing line currently. I may pick up a roll of the BESS to see how that works with the unit as it seems well tested and can be a consistent media. I'm still working with the Lyman pull gauge as a measurement tool and actually made use of a fidget spinner for the media.
I put together a device to work to have repeatable testing for knives through reviews and was looking for feedback and advice on the set up.
