Could we play this trick? For an normal 45 degree bed angle plane, can
we put a 5 degree back bevel on the blade to make the cutting angle a
total of 50 degrees? Is there loss of performance with this set-up?

Allow me to recommend Brian Burns' _Double Bevel Sharpening_ available
from LMII and, I believe, Japan WW'r.

Out of curiosity, do you put any double bevels on your products, Ron?
