Hi Arcos.
I personally think both grinds have their place & whilst I don`t have many shop bought turning tools I do have one each of these bowl gauges.
The standard grind has a shorter bevel, whilst the fingernail grind does away with the sharp points at the top of the standard grind.
The fingernail grind can also be used for shear scraping, you can also grind a second bevel to shorten the primary bevel, I believe someone has spoken about this before to you, so the fingernail is a more universal tool but as I say I think there is still a place for the standard.
I imagine a lot of us on here learnt with the standard grind as the fingernail grind is fairly new especially when compared to the standard
Cheers.
Doug.
