The BESS standard, or Brubacher Edge Sharpness Scale, is a standardized method for measuring the sharpness of knives. Developed by Mike Brubacher, owner of Edge-On-Up, the BESS uses a thin synthetic wire as a test medium, through which a knife is drawn in a single cutting motion. The maximum pressure applied to the wire is measured in grams and is the BESS value. A lower score on the BESS scale indicates a sharper knife. The BESS scale was developed by Brubacher, who has a background in sensor and test development in various industries. In 2012, he began developing a standard that could measure the sharpness of knives and needles. After conducting extensive research and testing, he introduced the BESS standard, which was quickly adopted by experts and enthusiasts alike as one of the most user-friendly methods for determining knife sharpness..
