When a knife is sharpened there is downward pressure on the support bar, do the guys at Tormek rest their hands on the support bar while truing because they also rest their hands on the bar when sharpening? Or there is downward pressure on the knife jig when sharpening therefore they rest their hands on the bar when truing.
@@knifegrindersaustralia5158 If or when I get a Tormek I'm going to true the wheel exactly as you showed in your video. With the knife jig, svm-45, it seems like the wheel could be out of square just a little and it wouldn't effect the outcome. As long as the grinding surface is flat and smooth and the edges are rounded a bit, like you show in the video. Overall you have the best content on UA-cam for sharpening. What kind of accent do you have? Just curious.
Dear Vadim, thank for this great video! Unfortunately, I watched this 30 minutes too late: While truing my SJ-250 stone, it has chipped off on the inside of the stone. I kindly ask for your suggestion: do I keep truing now until I reached the depth of the deepest chip? Use the technique of lifting up the TT50 before reaching the inside of the stone and so on? Or do I start now from inside, chipped side of the stone and work my way to the outside? Thank you and have a nice week.
Don't stress about the chipped corner of your SJ - use the wheel as is as long as it is square. If you have a #1000 diamond plate, or nagura stone you can lightly smoothen the chipped corner, but generally use the wheel as is. This chip will not interfere with the honing on the wheel.
@@knifegrindersaustralia5158 thank you for the quick reaction! I will do as you say, and I will buy myself a diamond plate in the future. Thanks again!
на какое (+-) количество кухонных ножей (длинной 17-20см) хватает базового круга и кремниевого, прежде чем они сотрутся до 200мм? с учётом всех средний вводных.
Excellent problem solving.
Thank you for this very informative video.
Good info, thank you.
Thank you 🙏🏻

Sharpening is different, since the main pressure goes on the blade pressed against the stone, isn't it?

250мм круг Тормека работает до 180мм в диаметре. SG хватает на 1000 кухонных ножей, а SB на 1500 в среднем.
@@knifegrindersaustralia5158 благодарю. Мои расчеты оказались +- правильными.
