Someone better tell Martha Stewart that that Tormek T8 that she is sharpening her sword on needs water. ;)

I saw that too!  Hilarious, with the sparks flying off the stone.

Couldn't find it on YT and we don't have Martha's commercials here. I'm so sad.

I guess the sparks are post-produced ?

Ahahahah. Thanks for the link, she's a master of freehand sharpening!

Very cool to see the Tormek... in a propaganda video for sheeple.

Sparks are fake. They have to be smart enough to know that you would need eye protection for that job without using water.

Ya, I've had a piece of metal in my eye extracted with a needle.

I accidentally did this on my Tormek when I forgot to raise the water trough.  I don't know that there's enough RPM's on this machine to really be likely to have that result here.  It was a bit of an 'oh s*&^' moment where it took a second to realize why my wheel was loading so quickly lol.

Ha...good commercial! They should do another one with Snoop Dogg showing her how to use it properly. Vadim would have gotten a laugh out of it.
