General Tormek Questions / Re:Knives!!!!

150 knives a day <whew> Ok Jeff since I was grousing about the time the Tormek takes me to do some items [knives wasn't one] what do you think?  If I can do an avearage knife in 5 minutes. 5*150/60=12.5 hours Yoikes!

If I start getting 150 knives a day I'm getting one of those F Dick's at that rate I'll be able to pay for it in like 5 & 1/4 days?
=(3150/4)/150 is that right ? 150 knives average $4.00 per knife per day, that's $600 per day SM-11 goes for $3150.00 SRP  $3150.00 divided by $600.00 equals 5.25 days

Oh but no one pays retail:)

F Dick says it will do 400 to 500 knives a day.

I'm getting a headache :-[

Who says lightening doesn't strike twice?  We must have had the same brite idea at the same time.  I did the same thing and had the same experience.  Before logging on here I took the grading stone to my LP:) and got the nasty looking groves to it and the pretty much went away.  The I fired off an "oh poor me" email to Jeff, who in him own inimitably professional fashion replied in quick time and told me the same thing he posted here.  A great information gatherer I am, the 411 was here already and I didn't bother to look. <SLAP> :P
