Lotta people have that reaction at first. It's the same grind they use on the Freeman 451, which is extremely well rated. I love mine.
Near as I can tell, the effect is the same as grinding hollows in a nakiri -- it keeps things from sticking to the blade and it reduces weight a bit. I can tell you that it hasn't been a problem to use on either knife.
You can probably ask Jeff if you're really curious. https://www.freemanoutdoorgear.com/pages/contact-us
I appreciate the explanation. It provides an interesting visual but I'm glad to hear that it is also functional.
