As I've now pretty much moved from synthetics to natural stones I've found that antique blades that are wedge, almost wedge up to half hollow are better with a coticule only edge and half hollows and upwards are better being finished on a Thuringian / Frankonian.
The sample size that leads me to this conclusion is quite small but it is noticeable (YMMV).
Have any of you noticed anything similar?
