I also use PA-70 with leather belts. Perfect for kitchen knives and low-carbide folding knives. For wear-resistant steels I start with a leather belt using 2 micron or .5 micron diamond and then finish with PA-70. But I almost always sharpen on the Tormek first. With CBN or diamond wheels I find it to be just as fast as the Worksharp, with better results and no chance of overheating.
