Good point Jan and with little doubt the bulk of the article the excerpt was lifted from seems to be pointed at straight razor users. However - we're thrown a curve ball with this portion of the excerpt - To a lesser degree, the topography of the edge’s apex can be a factor also. It can be smoother or toothier, and that can aid or distract from its cutting ability. That doesn't sound much like a reference to straight razor sharpening.
It makes little difference, we don't hold the author of the excerpt forth as the be all and end all of edge creation. It just seemed to us as if he had thoughts on the matter and then proceeded to advance those thoughts in a reasonably clear fashion. It just wasn't clear enough to avoid our being left with a few questions.
