…and every Edge On Up instrumentation user is part of the BESS worldwide community. Only the BESS, in conjunction with Edge On Up instrumentation, enables you to not only measure the sharpness of an edge but to numerically quantify that sharpness level. The BESS gives sharpeners everywhere a voice and a means of communicating sharpness values. Now you can talk, think, compare and notate sharpness levels with every edge you own or sharpen.
DTC100 test clips in conjunction with our DCB10 test clip base make testing easier in many ways. Test clips allow easier access permitting hand-held edges and odd shaped edges to be measured. Test clips are great for laboratory use where edges may be found that are sub-50 BESS typically. Test clips are also useful to those who have lost dexterity in their hands. While test clips utilize the same test media that is found in our TM02 test media canisters, DTC100 test clips are not BESS CERTIFIED and are useful for highly repeatible relative edge measurements only. Test clip measurements yield approximately 80% of the force required when using our BESS CERTIFIED ATF10G fixture.
