Somebody said Kool mist is not a perfect corrosion inhibitor. I'll test it soon.

We need ACC-150 to use Diamond wheels.

How about Kool Mist as alternative?

No idea... but just looking at their website, it looks like "Formula #78" would be the better option? (vs. the #77 you linked to).

Rust prevention doesn't seem to be the primary purpose, but the msds sheets, also on their website, should give you more info on if it'll work.

Yes. #78 is for light duty, so maybe it's better option than #77.

I ordered #77 to use with belt grinder and it will be arrived in a few days. I still use ACC-150 with CBN wheels on the Tormek, but I thought it would be a good solution for someone looking for a cheaper alternative.

How about Spyderco Gauntlet?
I have Spyderco sharpmaker, but will order Gauntlet soon.

Yes
Vadim cant deliver a long time so i get Contact to the Manufactor and order my own.
after the people here in Europe saw my videos, the whole thing really got to me. So I decided, either completely or not at all and have all parts I use produced by myself and sell them with the CBN-Wheels in my shop. At the moment it is a little bit difficult to deliver to the USA because the freight costs have risen extremely due to covid-19. on top of that there is a different fee depending on the postcode. therefore i only send to the states after clarification of the freight costs by mail.

cheers Hanns

Thank you for answer.

Are they same with Knife Grinder's CBN wheels?

Thank you all

Perhaps the difference is insignificant. Both are good abrasive, but I wonder if there are any researches.

Thanks Ken.

I respect Vadim, but I thought there was reasons why Tormek chose diamond.

Hello everyone.

I wonder which will last longer on the Tormek, CBN or Diamond.

Tormek said Diamond is better.

But Vadim(Knife Grinders) claimed CBN is better.

How do you think about that?

Rest In Peace.

IMHO, You have to use bench stone. The flatness is extremely important for clipper blade.

Thank you all

Of course I'll use it with ACC-150.

Is there any problem?

I just bought a second Tormek leather wheel and conditioned the leather. 1µ paste should arrive soon. I want to see what results I get with this combination before I try anything finer. I plan on keeping the wheels in individual zip lock plastic bags and cleaning the knives thoroughly before and after each step.

What paste did you buy? I tested diamond lapping paste but it's useless for sharpening.

I am trying this one.

I have it, and applied on leather wheel. But it didn't work.
