Question for users of kiritsuke's, mukimono's, etc: How is hamaguri-ba accomplished on kiritsuke-style points that have third-planes?
Most (but not all) such designs tend to have a third plane to support the point (example here); this would presumably cause the "shinogi-raising" at that area to be done at a completely different angle than the rest of the blade-road. How then is the bevel-fusion done on that area? Clearly it would not be exactly the same as is done with the rest of the blade.
