Broadhead toothy vs polished edge?
Swampman:
Smooth and razor sharp for me too. I like them scary sharp!
Hawkdancer:
Just like knives, I believe they should be scary sharp! Obsidian sharp! Now, to get mine that way >:D!

Doesn't obsidian end up with micro serrations though?

Nope, under magnification obsidian is still smooth, as opposed to steel which looks like a tree saw.

The things we learn on here, i never would've thought that about obsidian. I have read that rhe edge can get as thin as one atom across, making it the sharpest edge in the world.
I saw a suggestion on a different site about using stretched rubber bands to simulate stretchy blood vessels in critters. Give a push cut and/or slice to test how easily it severs.
Well, I put it to the test with some of the thicker wider rubber bands, and a polished edge out performed the best toothy edge. Nothing scientific, just could tell by how much more I had to rake the toothy one before the rubber band snapped.
