Knife Used Knife Sharpening - Esee Izula II Steel Type 1095 Stones Used Nubatama Ume 1000 grit Nubatama Ume 2000 grit Dlt XL leather strop with white compound Bess 'C' score based on 3 cut tests average - 144g Edge angle measured around 20º per side, 40º inclusive. This is a difficult one to read, however, as the nature of my sharpening this steel, seriously convexed the bevels. In any case, between that, and measuring the bevels, plugging that info into a triangle calculator; this is the best I can ascertain.
