Hi Guys, I am new to sharpening, therefore I know I have a lot to learn. I hope my question doesn't sound too silly.
I am considering purchasing the Tormek T-8 But I have a slight concern. Am I right in thinking when sharpening high-end chefs' knives using the T8 one can expect to end up with a small concave edge.
If I am correct, is my customer at a disadvantage in that the razor sharpness will only last for about three months with normal use.
Comparing the Concave to the Scandi edge, I have been told one would expect the sharpness to last for up to 6 months. From my customers point of view, this would be significant.
I would be grateful if you guys could let me have your opinions on how long one can expect the edge to remain razor sharp using the Tormek T8.
