Grind

[verminisjk]

Hello all

I'm lost with the grinds denomination. I know what a full wedge is, and what full hollow means, that's the easy part. Then, there's the 1/2 hollow, wich is, I guess, inbetween full hollow and full wedge. Where I'm getting lost is on the other "sizes". 1/4 hollow, does this mean it's between 1/2 and full hollow or between 1/2 and full wedge. I would say it's between 1/2 and full wedge, but I'm unsure.

The smaller the value of the fraction, the closer the blade is to a wedge. Thus the 1/4 hollow would be thicker in the center of the blade and more wedge like than would be a 1/2 hollow. Check out the pictures here under grinds: http://www.en.nassrasur.com/razorcentral/index.html
