Oh yeah - we mean, no! Sharp Pad is bullet proof of course me2. Well, yes. That's why Sharp Pad includes the HDPE plates. They absorb the brunt of the initial deburr process and a new burr will definitely put some grooves in the HDPE plates. Without HDPE plates your leather plate would end up looking like this:
Actually most of that damage was done by setting sharp edges down just a little too quickly. Good stiff burrs would shred the smooth leather surface in short order. Bye the bye, if anyone is interested in a Sharp Pad you should let us know via EOU email because we will not be restocking Amazon (I think that there are only a couple left on Amazon as of this morning.) We're going to quit making them except for our own use. It's been a relatively successful product but we simply don't generate enough revenue with them relative to our edge tester sales now to make manufacturing and marketing them worthwhile.
