    I prefer the one on the left. I also have a suggestion for the one on the right. I would personally, grind up towards the spine for half the remaining distance. I think the one on the right is a bit of a wedge, and it just seems like it will cause some trouble in finishing the cuts on hard and large product.

    I will take the grind up further on the right one, as i get the wedging comment. The one on the left is a total flat grind, as it will be used for smaller stuff, fruits, smaller veggies and such.I wanted to keep one partially ground, with more strength in the spine. I have to say thanks for the suggestions everyone.

    Take a look at Carter's site, and you'll se quite a few similarities between your partial grind and his funayukis.
    I'm enjoying watching these come to fruition.
