Real Word Knife Angle Talk vs. Sharpening Systems and Sales videos

00:10 New Mask
3:05 Start of talk about edge angles
13:55 Demonstrate Sharpie trick


In this video I talk about one of the top questions I get from new sharpeners. I know when I started I felt the same way as many of you who have asked me about how to get proper angles many people struggle on the Tormek to get specific angles. I show you a few ways to get around using the Tormek angle master. Then I compare it to what happens in the real world and real customers who will come to see you for sharpening and tell you why you really don't need to worry about it much. I have included links below to most of the items in this video that I use if there is something you are interested in that I forgot to include a link for let me know.
