Danny replied to the topic Tormek in the forum Techniques and Sharpening Strategies 5 years, 1 month ago
I bought the WE Pro and love it with the knives I sharpen I just recently bought the Tormek T-8 so I can sharpen still bits axes e ct. that I can not do on the WE. I have found the re-profiling with the tormek is a lot faster and then finishing on the WE makes the whole thing go much faster. The only thing I need for the tormek is the Jap…[Read more]

Who on here has the Tormak machine and the WE system. How so you use them to compliment each other. Do you use the Tormek for more of the re profile and repair of damaged knives then finish on the WE. Just throwing the question out there.

Got it done. Not all pits came out but I didn’t want to take to much. Gave a good sharpening only to 600 grit at 18°. Looks a lot better. Got another two projects coming. Old case knives that I got at a sale. Can’t wait to start on them.

It’s starting to look like a useable knife again. Still have some work on it but didn’t have time last night. Got home a little late.

Here is an old timer Schrade knife. Been doing a lot of clean up here lately which is nice. I like to see a knife cleaned. This one is going to take some time and finesse. Looking forward to getting started

That was my thinking also. A good time saw with a diamond blade. I have laid lots of time and have used a wet saw for many years. I am going to order some of wetstones and oil stones to put on blank handles. One stone usually is around 8″ x 2″ so I can get two blanks and two stones to make the complete set.

- Just wondering if anyone here has cut down Arkansas stones and other wet stones, oil stones to fit blanks for the WE. I was thinking of buying some other stones to cut down to put onto blanks to give me more choices to choose from. If so, can you cit it using a tile saw or is there another way to do it?

I’m just going to put this out there about customer service. They are EXCELLENT. Got ahold of Clay by email after unpacking one of my ceramic stone sets to put into my rack it that I got from MarcH. As soon as they came out of the plastic, both sides fell out of the handles. Glue didn’t stick at all. Clay gave me an email right back and had…[Read more]

Thanks brewbear I am working on my buck knife had some surface rust on it super eraser took it off like a charm. Sharpening it right now with a 16° bevel and I’m going to convex the edge to 18°. It chips to easy at 16° which is the way it came from factory, so hopefully convexing the bevel will help it out. Got to 1500 last night but ran ou…[Read more]

Thanks for all the input. Was just thinking about it because I have actually watched the video a couple of times. Probly will just stick with cleaning with a soft brush and some dawn. Also the alcohol spray. Thanks again.

Ok. So I was thinking about the ultrasonic cleaner to clean my diamond stones. I have seen the video on you tube of one man using the machine to clean his stones. This of coarse is a older video on YouTube. I am wondering if anyone is using ultrasonic cleaners to clean your stones, and if so what is a good brand to get?
