Knife Sharpening / Re: KJ-45 - first thoughts

Mike,

Sadly, I agree. The cost of international shipping is problematic. Unfortunately, that was what killed the US market for UK forum member, Robin C Bailey, selling the useful extended support bar he designed. It is well made and he was selling it at a very fair price. The killer was the cost of international shipping. Robin's plan was to have ten made up to recoup the cost of his bar. A good plan, but, alas, only one taker, me.

I hope we will someday return to more rational shipping costs. I regular buy blueberries grown in Chile and Peru at a more reasonable cost. Hopefully we can figure ways to ship other items at lower cost.

Ken, buy blueberries from Chile and Peru? I won't buy produce from anywhere but the USA, support American farmers or there won't be American farms. Blueberries come from Maine. ;)
Ken

You can buy just the diamond for the TT-50 and install the stainless steel drive shaft.

If I was this displeased with the T8 I would sell it and move on to something better. Why be unhappy?

Use the standard stone, the vibration and squealing comes with sharpening scissors.

CB, is right. Who here would sell their barely used T7 with jigs for less than $450.00?

What I see is the first T-8 had the old style TT-50 and no marker and the second T-8 has the new style TT-50 and the sharpie/marker.
