That is very very acute. 15 deg is considered a delicate carving angle by the fellow I buy my wood working knives from. I am not sure that could hold up no matter what the steel etc.
My Skookum tools are in the 12 degree range but are true scandi ground not a hollow. That is about as small an angle as I would like to have on a working tool.
