hey, Im new to this hobby.. Great video by the way, very useful especially for a newbie like me. Watched your Grinding video too, thank you very much.
I do have a question though, I've heard the term Wharncliffe a lot, what is that? a grinding type, a blade shape, a designer? lol sorry for the noob question
@avengedtheater Hi. Glad you liked the video, as you're exactly the type viewer it was made for.
A Wharncliffe is another name for a sheepsfoot, stemming from a claim that some Earl of Wharncliffe developed this blade shape. However, that's not true. The design has been around longer than Earls have been, much less that one, but the name stuck.
A 3rd name for the sheepsfoot is a Beak.
IMO one should never apologize for a question, btw. Questions lead to knowledge... a good thing
