Haffner started the topic What is the grain size in Micron of the 1500, 2200 and 3000 Diamond Stones? in the forum Abrasives 4 years, 10 months ago
The knivesandtools.com website rates them as similar to a Japanese 3000, 6000 and 8000 grain size.
But what will they be in terms of microns?
Based on Grand Unified Grit Chart, my guess is 4.5, 2 and 1.2 Micron, but I’m no expert… -

Another great accessory would be at set of Black Axle Boots like these:
So many users use them already to protect the ball joints from diamond dust from the stones, so why not offer them as an accessory? Once again you can save the users a lot of time because they don’t have to search for the right ones and perhaps buy some that are less than o…[Read more]

An argument against offering a set of four shaft collars as an accessory could be that there are so many different collars out there, and the users should be able to choose the ones that they like the most.
But this is not the issue here. By offering the collars as an accessory, you save the users from having to wonder which collars will do the…[Read more]

What a great idea, Expedia! A set of four Shaft Collars will be a very cheap and useful accessory. You could even add a set of thick rubber o rings, that can reduce the shock, when the stones hit the collars. I’m sure this accessory will be a great help to many users, and they will get much more out of their sharpener by using the collars.

Great! I don’t think you will regeret it… I hope you wil post your experiences with them.
BTW, “free 2 day shipping”. You don’t want to know, what shipping to Denmark costs, but I’ll tell you, it sure ain ‘t free! And som products don’t even ship to Denmark…
And then there is customs and tax: 25 USD + 25% VAT!
Life ain ‘t cheap…

Haffner replied to the topic WTB: Wicked Edge Blank Handles in the forum Want to Buy 5 years, 8 months ago
For my actual purpose, I really need the old style of handles, because they can be taken apart.
I will be gluing some 5 mm thick stones to the black centrepieces and then total thickness of the handles will be just the same as the ordinary Wicked Edge handles. Getting the paddle thickness back to 30 mm is quite important, because then the…[Read more]

I use four 1/4 inch Shaft Collars to control the movements of my paddles.
They work so well, I think they ought to be available as a standard Wicked Edge accessory.

Hi,
Does anyone in here have one or two Blank Handles they can spare or will sell?
It is important, that the handles are the old black and red type like these:

Get the “Threaded Shaft Collars”, and buy four of them.
When you have the 12 inch rods, it’s often a good idea to use clamps on both ends of the rods.

Haffner replied to the topic New to Wicked Edge in the forum Welcome Mat 5 years, 8 months ago
Indeed, but let me recommend you to use clamping shaft collars as paddle stops. Once you secure the collars on the guide rods, they will stay in place, even when you hit them multiple times while moving the paddles.
However, do avoid collars with set screws as they might damage your guide rods.

Google is your friend…
I tried to Google “scissor sharpening angle”, and very little information turned up.
However, sharpeningmadeeasy.com gave some real information. I’ve taken the liberty of quoting the most relevant paragraphs here:
SCISSOR SHARPENINGScissor angles are measured from square, which is called 0 degrees.
