Yeah, edge that sharp serves no purpose on axe. It'll bend and then be dull again. Shallower point with the burr removed is more durable and stays sharp(ish) for much longer.

Thx, I was looking for this bit of context - somehow the possibility you made it sharp "bcs it's better" made me uneasy.
I'm glad it's done properly.
