The HollowFlat™ Blade makes sharpening a breeze with any sharpening device. No guides or complicated equipment required - no need to maintain a precise angle. No need to send your knife back to the factory for "professional" sharpening. In fact, sharpening the HollowFlat™ Blade requires no special skills at all.
Sharpened on the flat side only, as shown in the photo, the HollowFlat™ Blade is placed with the flat side of the blade in contact with the sharpening surface.
The design of the HollowFlat™ Blade features an integral guide that ensures the 0° (zero degree) angle of the bevel is maintained during the sharpening process for perfect results every time.

The HollowFlat™ Blade is a Miltner Adams innovation featured exclusively in Miltner Adams knife designs.
The HollowFlat™ Blade is similar to a chisel grind blade, with the exception that the flat side is hollow ground, producing a raised flat bevel that makes
it possible to sharpen on the flat side. In addition, the shape of the hollow grind creates a spacer opposite the raised flat bevel that acts as a built-in
"guide." The HollowFlat™ Blade is sharpened on the flat side only.
Examples of double bevel and chisel grind blades:
