    After spending some time reading and re-reading the spreadsheet and your writeup I think I've got it sorted out now, .

    Looks like a very thorough exercise that has yielded some very useful results. I'll take on board the take home message.

    If the spreadsheet could be tidied up I reckon it's a publishable article. As I see it, the main issues with the spreadsheet are mixed data (not immediately clear if the times are referring to grind/hone times or cutting times, eg there appears to be only two sharpening times) and more descriptive labels. Rather than one spreadsheet, perhaps several tables in something like MS Word might work better.

    Publish or not, good stuff .

    .
    Stay sharp and stay safe!

    Very informative , but far to technical for this old chippie. I will stick to my spark producer and #800 grit Japanese water stone. But then I have trouble tying shoe laces..

    Thanks for doing this , I'm always more convinced when claims can be backed up by real data. You've had some offers for help on your spreadsheet and I can also help if you wish. Hoping to see you at the Woodworking show this weekend.
