Tormek T8 - Kitchen knife sharpening + tomato & paper trick

Sharpening a kitchen knife sharpening on my Tormek T-8, with the tomato and paper trick!
Here I take another kitchen knife and give it some really nasty beatings.. It's 10 years old and has been discarded many years ago. So why not?!
Filming this took 1-2 hours but this can easily be done in about 5-10 minutes.. Or less if you stick with the SG-250 stone.
There's a lot of comments about sharpening knives on the Tormek T8 vs. flat stones. Some people prefer flat stones over a Tormek and of course.. I would do the same, if you only need to sharpen a couple of knives or one.
But when you sharpen 20, 50 or even 100 at the time, this machine can't be beaten by flat stones.
I use this for almost all my sharpening: axes, knives, gouges, turning tools etc. And of course for customers: scissors, kitchenknives etc.
ASMR for the people!

[@davidruby7408]

Awesome job I'm one who believes that you sharpen/cut the steel into/towards the blade not away from it creating a burr or roll out same way I sharpen into my bar on my stihl chainsaw chain into the tooth or cutting edge not away from it love the informative videos no ego of so much meaningless talk as 90% of all youtube videos thank you

Ostrzenie tego noża to bajka- sam bym tak chciał to robić. Ile trzeba mieć praktyki żeby to zrobić. Widać porządne wykonanie tej pracy. Ogląda się bardzo przyjemnie

[@Bialy_1]

heh, przecież on to maszynowo ostrzył w uchwytach i w ogóle... to nie jest ostrzenie z wolej ręki jak na wielu filmikach. Ostrości też tu nie zaprezentował jakiejś wybitnej. Bez problemu znajdziesz filmiki dobrych noży z alliexpres (bodajże xinzuo) gdzie koleś tnie kartki prawie równolegle do ostrza i nie zaczynając od krawędzi tylko samo wybrzuszenie na powierzchni kartki wystarcza do tego żeby nóż jak w masło wchodził... a do ostrzenia noży z wolnej ręki to polecam filmiki z kanału burffection.

Jonas, just got my Tormek. Trying to figure out the whole angle piece. How accurate are you with figuring out the existing grind angle and matching it as closely as possible. Thank you.

[@formgjortbyJonasAls]

Hello Richard! Congratulations, that’s one bad addiction you just started ;) I always sharpen knives at 20-25 degrees.. that works for me. But just play around. Less angle means very sharp, but not durable at all. Big angle means less sharp but very durable.

Great video. I'm considering a purchase of a tormek system. I'm curious though, what was the second wheel you switched out at the end? Would you recomend buying it with the machine initially or is it just "nice to have" ? thanks

[@mcq31mc]

When you initially buy the T8 it will come the the stone seen at 5 19. The fine side will get you to 1000 grit which is fairly sharp. The next stone was most Likely the Japanese waterstone. Which brings you up to 4000 grit mirror finish

what a delight to finally see someone dressing and using a wet stone, and have it traveling towards the blade as it should. most of the so called tool sharpening videos make me wince when i see sparks flying of the metal on a dry stone that is revolving far far to fast.

[@pjttaylor7186]

why should the stone travel towards the blade?

@@pjttaylor7186 it stops the unnecessary burr on the honed edge. and when that burr is rubbed of it leaves lots of tiny blunt points

[@OllieVK]

Always confused me that many knife sharpeners sharpen away from the edge, yet machininsts sharpening drills/lathe tools etc sharpen properly towards the tool.

[@michaelmennuti4414]

@@OllieVK a lot of water stones are soft enough that the edge digging in can actually be a problem, much as you wouldn’t strop a blade on leather towards the edge. I would be surprised if the sharpening tools a machinist used were soft like that.
