Well thank you Jeff(s)
That puts my mind at ease.
And, yes, I did scare myself. I've had enough cuts on my hands though.
Stitches in the palm are about the most painful I've ever had.

Good machine Mr. Farris. I'm quite pleased.

Hello folks
I am new to this game and have, as yet, only sharpeded 4 knives.
I am very uncomforable sharpening with the wheel turning into the knife edge so I've done the last two the other way.

Other than the speed, which doesn't really concern me, is there any other reason not to sharpen a knife this way?

Also, when buffing, should I be holding the knife at a more acute (45*) angle or a shallower (20*) angle?

Thank you very much
Rick
