  • Incredibly effective sharpening system!
I’ve invested more than I’d like to admit in a variety of sharpeners, including wet stones, multiple variations of Work Sharp systems, and finally, the T-4 While they all have their place, if I’d started with the T-4 I’d have saved a bunch of $$, and had incredibly sharp knives, chisels and scissors a lot sooner, and with a lot less effort. What a great system! Not cheap, but totally worth it. I only wish I’d found it sooner. ... show more

  • Anyone want to buy some used sharpening equipment?
It seems every spare bit of bench and shelf space in my shop holds some sort of sharpening system, stone or device. These range from an 8" grinder, to small belt sanders equipped with leather stropping belts, all the way down to diamond wet stones and Arkansas hard stones. I am, a sharpening junkie. I think a garage sale is in order though, because I've put my new Tormek T4 through its paces over the last month, and I have found my system at last! The scary sharp edges that I achieved were so impressive that I resharpened every edge tool in my shop. The Tormek system is well thought out and the components are of very high quality. Here are a few notes based on my experience: 1. The customer support is excellent, but you must register your tool using the serial number on the bottom. My T4 arrived without the SP-650 Stone Grader that was supposed to be included. As a registered owner, I emailed the company in Sweden. Within 24 hours, a representative of the US distributor in the Midwest replied, requesting my shipping information. I had the stone within 48 hours- a total of three days after I unpacked my Tormek. Excellent! 2. Based on customer reviews, i purchased three accessories to meet my sharpening needs: the SE-77 Square Edge Jig (absolutely needed for plane irons, chisels, etc.), the SVS-38 Short Tool Jig (for my carving gouges, etc.) and the LA-120 Profiled Honing Wheels (again for the carving tools.). These all met or exceeded my expectations. 3. Most important is that you watch the entire DVD that is included before you do anything else, otherwise you might wonder about the lack of set up instructions, like I did. 4. The T4 also comes with a detailed booklet on how the many accessories function. 5. You will need to keep your Tormek out of freezing spaces. The stone absorbs water and can potentially crack if it freezes. 6. The stone does not grind as quickly as you might be used to with a conventional grinder, but once you re profile your tool edges, a quick honing on the leather wheel will get them scary sharp once more. The system is expensive, which is what kept me away for quite a while. What I did was to ask for Amazon gift cards at every gift giving occasion for Christmas, my Birthday and Father's day. I saved them all, and now I have my Tormek! I plan to add a knife sharpening jig and a jig for woodturning tools next. ... show more

  • Not the easiest system, but once you Works very, very well.
It runs faster than I expected, but it is smooth and effective, make sure to use very light pressure when sharpening without a jig, or it will pull you off angle quickly and easily. Speaking of, it should at least come with a knife jig, but it doesn't. As is you get the stone wheel, strop wheel + compound and treatment, truing stone, marking pen, and the jig bar, plus the manual and angle guide. You have to be fairly experienced at sharpening already to make a go of it with just that. That is the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5. The spacing is a little cramped between the main wheel and the strop wheel, larger knifes can be a little unwieldy to properly strop. I find the angle guide it comes with to be near useless, finding the bevel by feel/eye and setting your jig is much easier. All in all, it's pricey, but if you want consistent, sharp tools quickly, this is the best cheap option I've found. I used to hate planing and sharpening chisels, and I struggled to find hand jigs for getting good edges for any tool, chisels, knives, etc, but this thing made it a breeze. ... show more

  • Pricey but if you actually use a knife its worth every penny!!
I love this thing!! I am retired Marine so I know about how keeping a edge is very important. This machine does it in seconds with accuracy and its fan-freaking-tastic! If all you need is something to sharpen a few knives then get the Lansky sharpner, its the best hand sharpening system. If you need to put a whole new edge angle on a knife and want to keep it razor sharp, then this is your guy. No sparks, no dust and the wheel turns slow so its not only easy to control you can do detailed work with it without it jumping all around. I love you can measure what angle you want on a knife. Most pocket knives are probably a 30-35 degree edge, pretty sharp but durable. I like 22.5 as I found its a good balance, although I need to touch it up more often to keep it cutting nice. I can do surgery with my knives though. I wish the honing leather gear was a bit bigger as its kinda a chore trying to maneuver a large knife in-between the two wheels, but it works. Love the water cooled, keeps the blade tempered and my hands unblistered. This is by far the longest review I've ever written and that is because this thing is awesome. I like how when you open the box one of the first things that is in it is a band aid. Very fitting considering what this thing can do. LOVE IT!! ... show more

  • Stopping debating it and buy it, you will not regret it
I love the tormek t4, gets my knives really sharp, it’s a little pricey but works great, it’s built with quality materials, very durable, I must say I’m impressed, the accuracy is a given depending on how well you are at sharpening knives, the vibration is very low with just enough speed to sharpen a good knife with out heating the steal ... show more

  • It is awesome. We bought the wood turners jig set along ...
Oh, my gosh! This tool is the most outstanding tool we own. I was a little hesitant to dive in and try it, but now I find every chance I can to sharpen our lathe chisels. It is awesome. We bought the wood turners jig set along with it, and they are great! We had bought the Work Sharp system because it showed we could attach the Tormek jigs to it, but they discontinued the part needed to attach them. What a waste of money!!! They pack bandaids in with the system I think as a joke, but seriously, the tools really get sharp enough to cut you! Well spent money!!!! ... show more

  • l. A cheap grinder and a good very fine grinding or sharpening wheel is all you need.
Difficult to use. Going from one setting to another for different gouges is complicated. It may be easy for the inventor, but for me, it is an expensive disappointment. I could have bought a cheap one and got the same results. Save your money and buy a Grizzly.
