    Sharpened metal drop-point blade Naturally occurring sharp obsidian piece Shark tooth with a sharp, serrated edge A sewing needle comes to a sharp point. Sharpness refers to the ability of a blade, point, or cutting implement to cut through materials with minimal force, and can more specifically be defined as the capacity of a surface to initiate the cut.

  5. Knife sharpening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knife_sharpening

    Recently, manual sharpening tools have appeared in the form of systems that guide the blade against the stone at a predetermined angle. One such system is known as the HORL principle, which combines a cylindrical sharpener with a magnetic angle support, allowing the knife blade to be held at an angle of 15° or 20° while being sharpened with a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_gauge

    An angle gauge is a tool used by foresters to determine which trees to measure when using a variable radius plot design in forest inventory. Using this tool a forester can quickly measure the trees that are in or out of the plot. An angle gauge is similar to a wedge prism though it must be held a fixed distance from the eye to work properly ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpening

    A hand-held tungsten carbide knife sharpener, with a finger guard, can be used for sharpening plain and serrated edges on pocket knives and multi-tools.. Sharpening is the process of creating or refining a blade, the edge joining two non-coplanar faces into a converging apex, thereby creating an edge of appropriate shape on a tool or implement designed for cutting.

  9. Rake angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_angle

    In machining, the rake angle is a parameter used in various cutting processes, describing the angle of the cutting face relative to the workpiece. There are three types of rake angles: positive, zero or neutral, and negative. Positive rake: A tool has a positive rake when the face of the cutting tool slopes away from the cutting edge at inner side.
