Ah I'm so psyched to get that Ali 1x30 now that I can see you using it Cliff. You said at 4:26 "Edge leading with the leather belt will leave them with a toothy edge" - did you mean edge trailing (versus edge trailing on a higher speed leather wheel)?
@CurryCustomCutlery
2 жыл бұрын
For clarity leather stropping MUST be edge trailing to avoid damage & severe injury. Im referring to going edge leading with the abrasive belts. At one point I buff the edge to show how easy it is to make it "polished" but not toothy anymore.

As a beginner sharpener, I don’t see you raising a burr, or rather checking for one ? How to ensure you’re really hitting the apex? Thanks
@CurryCustomCutlery
Жыл бұрын
One of the keys to being able to sharpen quickly is clear indication that the apex has been reached and being able to stop to avoid removing excess material. Lighting is critical kzitem.info/news/bejne/pIRq0KOrkGNzfZw

A couple questions. What belt progression are you working through? You seem to only need to do a couple passes on the course to bring up a burr. I often need several minutes to set the bevel. How do you achieve it so quickly? Also, do you find only 1-2 passes on your fine belt refines the edge enough to have a long lasting apex? What is the edge retention like on your finished product? Thanks!

First step is cubitron p120 it for me is perfect level to remove damage and reset the angle. Couple passes at 600 grit trizact a30 is enough to wipe any signs of the p120. Strop to desired toothiness level
