Hi Guys
I am new here
My name is Hanns and i am from Germany.
I read here a lot and learn a lot 2.
Sorry but English is not that good but i hope u guys understand what i like to say. :)
After watching tonns ofvideos in YouTube about knifegrinding i buy myself a Tormek T8 beginning this year.
I found on YouTube also the Videos of Vadim and like a lot what he shows also was thrilled by his techniques.
At the end i buy in his shop 3 CBN-Wheels.
They arrived few days ago and i was very happy. I made a video and putt it online on my Chanel.
1 Day later i get a mail from Vadim. He tells me that its not nessesary to make with the 400 and 1000 grid wheel more than 1 pass each side.
Was bit confused about that :) always thought more helps more :)
So i decided to test that.....
Through my job i know the CEO of Giesser Knifes Germany and i ask him if its possible to have some second choice Knifes to practice knifefgrinding and he spend me almost 20 different knifes (happy)
For my test i take one of this knifes a 20€ Chefsknife so not high quality but for my test ideal.
In pain i make the knife dull on the stonegrader from Tormek :)
The i grind the knife first on 160 grid CBN
Then the 400 and 1000 grid with only 1 pass each side.
At the end 2 passes on the leather wheel with Autosol paste.
All measured with the new software from wooz and the FVB 2
The result was awsum. Really sharp. Making video at Saturday and Monday i get from US my Bess sharpener tester.
First knife i messure was this Giesser knife BESS was 97 and this with a 20€ knife. Was speechless.
If someone wanna see the video (sorry in German) here is the link

Cheers Hanns
