I’m surprised too. Stresses at the apex are highest when the apex is at its keenest. My expectation was to see early wear (effectively widening the apex), and see the wear rate falling off asymptotically. Perhaps all we’re seeing is the edge retention of stainless and it’s just too early to get excited. @djundjila’s opinion would be interesting on this.
Cool pictures! Interesting, indeed. I’m also surprised how little it changed.
