Hello Gavin,
Yes, kampilan blades do have a bit of flex (and will return true if things are not overdone). As you assumed, Ray was referring to the blade setting a bend from poorly aligned cutting attempts; usually, this can be manually straightened out again. (Obviously, this should be avoided with antique blades; OTOH, some trial & error is part of the valuable hands-on research and old blades can be surprisingly resilient...) Regards, Kai |
