I held out for as long as I could. In a moment of severe weakness and lack of character I ordered it last night. I am ashamed. I have a problem.

I'm bracing for the next wave of knife steel debates and fancy knife purchases...it really makes no sense to sharpen just any 'ol knife with a sharpener like this. Y'all need to honor that tormek with a new knife.Not a felon

At the very least I need a new knife without any sentiment attached so I can practice using it before my babies go near it.Legume said:I'm bracing for the next wave of knife steel debates and fancy knife purchases...it really makes no sense to sharpen just any 'ol knife with a sharpener like this.

Great, now I can't get the image of @Botch sitting in a bubble bath with a Tormek running on that little shelf. The Electrical Engineer in me just hopes he has a GFCI installed correctly in the bathroom!Ozzie_Isaac said:Clinton, Iowa -
Bringing this one back to life. I have a few cheap filet knives - any idea what angle I should settle on for them?

I usually cut filet knives at 14-17 degrees.______________________________________________I love lamp..

And thanks @nolaegghead , I was able to get my boning knife fixed and razor sharp setting at 20 … FIW , not all knife angles listed are total they may be per side like mine , thanks again @nolaeggheadnolaegghead said:I usually cut filet knives at 14-17 degrees.Visalia, Ca @lkapigian -
The Tormek has a major flaw. I now understand how important blade thickness is. I have my regular knives very sharp with proper blade geometry and they do not perform as well as my thinner blades. I am starting to appreciate all the other aspects of good knives now and not blaming performance on my poor sharpening skills.

Pro tip: match the angle using a sharpie. Don't change the angle using the Tormek unless you want to spend a lot of time grinding the blade.

Nope, just wanted more general sharpener discussion. This is an underserved community on this forum.Botch said:

Tormek has released a "limited Edition" T-8, $1,000, for their 50th Anniversary. It's in Vader-esque All Black. I'm sure it'll be a worldwide Pantie-dropper.

Please tell me this plays “The Imperial March” when you sit down on it to drop the kids off at the pool.Ozzie_Isaac said:"I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike -

Inside the bowl there are tie fighters that fly around. Your job is to use your "laser canon" and blast them. There are satisfying sound effects upon successful intercepts.JohnInCarolina said:
