I'm excited to try out these new tools. I've really enjoyed sharpening on the WSKO. I hope this will take it to a new level.
Lest Ken or Grepper think I'm not listening: I hear you both about light pressure. It makes sense from several standpoints: Low heat, low belt deflection (for a less convex edge), good control, etc. Finally, I personally believe that low pressure at high speeds translates to "finer apparent grit". A combination of the belt moving very quickly (compared to hand speed) and the light pressure on the cutting surface, should produce a scratch pattern that's several grades finer than what is printed on the belt. Am I crazy?
Thanks,
Breian.
i remembered that in the past, i had ordered non woven from Klingspore also.....med....fine......they offer med....purple.....fine in blue
