Good idea, I'll give that a go tomorrow.

Thanks for the replies, I will be honing my skill as well as my knives.I'm also experimenting with another paste than the tormek paste. 0.1 micron seems promising. Thing is I have to clean the wheel and put some now 3 micron tormek paste on before proceeding to the .1 micron paste with every knife.

General Tormek Questions / Using the leather wheel without grindstone
January 05, 2021, 09:07:46 PM
Is it possible to run the leather wheel without having a grindstone mounted? I'd like to remove it so I can use my knifejig on the leather wheel, but my kitchen knife will hit the grindstone. When I removed the grindstone and turned it on the leather wheel's axle came out of the machine.

General Tormek Questions / Honing
December 28, 2020, 09:35:56 PM
Hey guys,
I've just started using the Tormek t8 since about a week. It's been a pleasure getting all my chisels and knifes sharp again. Now I'm trying to do the best I can at honing a chisel as close to a mirror edge as I can get it. I'm using the basic sg250 after grading it with the softer side of the grading stone, and then move to the leather honing wheel LA220 with tormeks honing paste. The chisel gets realy sharp and more than plenty sharp to work with, but for the fun of it I'm trying to get some tips how to get it smoother. As you can see there are some very clear grinding marks on the bevel.
How do I move forward to improve?
