So this might seem like a stupid question but a buddy of mine and I were talking about this subject recently and neither of us could come up with an answer. Why when I purchase a knew knife does the bevel seem so hard to see, for example the konosuke hh 240 gyuto my buddy recently picked up has an almost invisible bevel, as if the factory sharpeners were using an extremely acute angle. We both agree that when we sharpen knew knives our bevels become very distinct and identifiable but a factory bevel is often nearly invisible. I'm sorry I don't have any pictures to post of what I'm talking about but I thought someone a bit more knowledgable than me might be able to unravel this question.
