English term or phrase: edge
Seorang Indian tua berkata pada reknnya, seorang koboi yang pandai menggunakan pistol dan menjadi buronan:

You knew every man I knew who was good with the gun and lived always had an edge.

Seterusnya si indian bilang: Ada yang suka berdiri membelakangi matahari, agar wajahnya tidak terlihat jelas... seperti yang biasa dilakukan si koboi.

Si koboi menjawab:

Yeah, sure pays to have an edge.

Apa ya artinya edge di sini?
Thanks.
