I recently started using a Tormek 2000 that my dad has had for a while to sharpen HSS Logosol Planer blades.  The first set took a long time because I had to learn to use the machine.  But now i'm doing a second set and it is taking forever.  I trued the stone, and I think I regraded it correctly, using the edge of the grader every couple minutes of grinding.  I must have 40 minutes of grinding time on the first blade and still don't have the bevel completely ground.  I haven't tried my woodmaster or grizzly planer/jointer knives yet.  Could these blades be that hard or should I expect it to take this long?  I like the results but don't have the time to spend an hour per knife.  Any suggestions?
