Title: Did I make a mistake?
Post by: Rossy66 on December 03, 2025, 12:24:50 PM
New Tormek user here and I am excited to start using my new equipment. I just received my order of a custom T8 with the DF 250 Diamond wheel and the composite wheel. I was watching some YouTube videos for further education as I am starting a knife sharpening business and want to learn as much as I can to be able to give the best customer service I can (I am an ex-chef and have been using stones to sharpen my knives for over 40 years).

I came across the video that I have posted below, and was wondering if I have made a mistake buying the composite wheel instead of the leather. If anyone could suggest any recommendations on how to get the best honing experience with the composite wheel, I would be most grateful.
