Hello, new to the forum and to knife sharpening. Just got a Tormek T8 and want to venture out into the world of being a knife sharpener. My problem is I have searched everywhere and I am not able to find how to determine a knife blade angle. I have tried the maker approach it works ok. Is there a gauge, tool,formula something I can use to help know what a random knife blade angle is ?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
