    SHARP EDGE

    Hey Guys,

    I was wondering if anyone knows of any industry standard to DEFINE and MEASURE a sharp edge for a surgical tool.

    I've been having a hard time finding any information. To make matters worse the measurement of a sharp edge is rather difficult for a number of reasons. I don't know what the standard is, my guess is that most likely it would be a functional test to check the edge sharpness.

    Thanks for any help you guys might be able to offer.

    Sometimes, you get lucky.

    I did a quick search engine on "measuring sharpness" and this is one of many entries that came back.
