The Koraat was sharp, but not comfortable. I tried to correct this, and sure enough, sharpness decreased.
Have a good evening!

Ouch. Is this Koraat being difficult to maintain?
It's probably just me - I'm not particularly gifted with smiling edges. And the fact that I didn't have much time today certainly didn't help.
You will see yourself with the moarteen!
Do you think it's different from the Schweinchen's smile?
I don't quite remember - but the 14.2 has a strange profile that I don't think the Piggy has - it gets thinner like a normal hollow grind, but than has some kind of kite-shaped thickening in it (it is clearly visible in the first photo on the link in my SOTD post).
That's the "belly". Lots of hollow grounds have one. You're right that it's minimal on the Schweinchen.
