kharid ke liye kahn milega india me mil ta ho
Thanks for a great Video. Can you also scharpen bigger knifes on this machine? And also, can you scharpen daggers on it?
cbn wheels with a roundover edge solves this issue!
Great video
The reason the center of the knife has a center depression in the edge is you sharpen in both directions so the center gets sharpened twice for each far end getting sharpening once. Also your knife and your stone will last longer having the rotation going away from you.
Which sharpening wheel are you using? Thank you.
I watched several videos with this system, where the manufacturer does not recommend that you pull the knife back like this to sharpen the tip. You just lift up when it gets close to it. Did you notice any difference by doing this way? Does it keep the same angle all the way to the tip?
Good job!
You’re doing it wrong. The black plastic on the jigg should be rotated, not lifted.
Thanks for sharing this with us! Keep going
How much you charge for Edges like this?
Setting the angle is probably the most difficult bit, which you left out.
Just have Marifione show you how to do it freehand probably be just as easy as this.
Maybey Some sugestions to Tormek of a thin wheel for recurves or a dome shaped?
You're not supposed to rotate the blade. Keep it straight and only lift when you get to the tip.
Why ? Depending on the curve of the knife , rotating it may keep it at the same distance , hence same angle . I have had a Tormek for 12 years and either way works . Imo the skill of the operator has more to do than rotating vs lifting .
Rodger Myers Because if you rotate the blade as he does in the video, you create a totally different edge angle on the tip of the blade. The black knob of the holder should always be kept parallel to the tool rest.
@@jesperwall839 Yep. Thumbs up for that response. For all things Tormek, I highly recommend that anyone just starting out or with questions or is open & willing to learning more about the Tormek or similar wet stone wheel sharpening , watch the excellent sharpening channel here on UA-cam called "Knife Grinders". It's a German fellow as far as I can tell who lives & works in Australia & is a highly regarded, successful, knowledgeable & technical professional knife sharpener. You might think you know something until you watch & learn from this man. He has literally written a book on knife sharpening & developed many products in conjunction with Tormek for ultimate, high level sharpening. "Sharpco" is another good resource channel on UA-cam for Tormek sharpening. He appears to have learned, been in touch & purchased the software as well as other accessories developed from Knife Grinders. These fellows are in a whole different league than any other person uploading Tormek videos.
Dang you've just voided the warranty on that knife
Because its a microtech and I own several so trust me I know from the same mistake they are alot like a high end car dealership you have to send it back for sharpening and any maintenance or it will void the warranty just thought you might want to know for future customers who take there knifes to you but great review other that lol
I look to forward to more from you. I'm only a hobbyist user, just about to take delivery of a T4 Bushcraft machine but whilst browsing the few Tormek user sites, on you tube, I came acoss one that might interest you as professional...knifegrinders.com.au/11Shop.htm. They manufacture and sell a pivot device, 165 Aus$ international shipping (not cheap for the likes of me) that might suit your requirements, as it seems to enable easier honing of blades with curves. By the way I did subscribe to your site.
مرحبا بك اريد شراء هذا الموتور انا من مصر وشكرا لك
Just use the machine as a sharpening and a honing facility. It has plenty of jigs to ensure a perfect edge -a bodged freehand effort does not give the best outcome.
I would love to see more on using the T8 by a professional. Please post more.
That looked like it had a slight recurve, would that system work with a full or heavy recurve, like a kukuri.
Shelley Raskin for a full or heavy recurve you would need to round one of the corners of the stone, I prefer to do full or heavy recurved on my edge pro professional model with 1/2 inch stones!
great job on your first video. Looking forward to your future videos.
Jimmy Seymour thank you !
Perdón la pregunta cómo se hace para afilar cuchillos tipo bowe o rambo de 5 mm de grueso
Reissner Pabón Castro con este tipo de afilador? puedes meter algo de hasta 2cm yo he afilado fallkniven pro s1 y a1 y sin problemas yo tengo un t4, si tu pregunta es por el ángulo de afilado todos los tormek llegan con un adicional de plástico para que tengas el mismo ángulo siempre
Great video, subscribed and eager for more.
André Mota thank you !
Where are you based out of?
CFFG. Foon hello im based out of buffalo NY I sharpen knives from all over the world! Was there something I can help you with?
Good job on the recurved section. For longer knives is it difficult to remove the stone wheel due to interference on the strop side? Thanks!
buzzy f thabk you! And for longer blade you will have to angle it more on the hone, if you remove the wheel the shaft that runs through the machine will actually come out. So you want to leave the stone wheel installed and just go more at a angle on the honing wheel, i suppose if you want to remove the wheel you can put a spacer like stacked washers to hold it all together!
Makes sense, thanks
Great vid. I'm wondering if you have used the Japanese stone? I know tormek says there is no need to strop after using the Japanese stone, but wondering what the finish is like with just the stone.
Dave Martinez I have not used it yet but I do hear great things about it! Leaves a great mirror edge and you are right no need to hone or strop after.
The Japanese Waterstone does a phenomenal job I love it
The Japanese stone (SJ250) came out of round and needed ~2mm to be taken off with the truing tool. It’s also very soft-surprisingly so. The downside of the softness is that it can catch the knife while sharpening (with or without the knife jig), gouging the stone and putting a nick in the blade. Personally a good whetstone, such as a Shapton, produces a better result more quickly.Naturally, your mileage may vary.
