Tormek T-4 Bushcraft - Outdoor knife sharpening
I used this model when in school as a cabinet maker. Absolute joy to use and I can't wait until I can afford to buy one for myself (which I hope happens in the next 1-2 years). Until then I have to settle with a Scheppach as I need a wet grinder (I've spotted small nicks on my chisels and they need to be fixed), but I'll definitely run all tools over the Tormek T8 when I get myself one, as I don't believe any other brand can offer the same level of quality sharpening. As a cabinet maker who primarily work with hand tools and thus use _a lot_ of blades, the Tormek T8 is *the* wet grinder to get. It's definitely worth every penny
Very impressive demo. What a passionate Tormek user Mr. Holtham is.
hi, have you ever seen various violin making knives? They are shorter and smaller, any of your jig doesn't help to sharpen. 99% violin maker have Tormek but we do sharpening free hand with tormek. Please google violin making & repair knife in Google and invent some jig. I guess much smaller KJ-56 will work for our knives. SVM-00 also doesn't help.
Not having an adjustable stop seems like a step backwards; that small one is very hard to keep square
Tormek has never invented a jig for violin making and repair knife. 98% of violin makers have Tormek but this company doesn’t effort the customer in our field.. I can do my violin knife sharpening only with free hand.
Hello folks. Hopefully someone will get this message. The small knife jig doesn't work well with knives which have a rectangular shaped handle. It's very difficult to seat it securely in the jig. Any suggestions?
I have found out the answers to most of my questions by reading through the comments and because you actually answer peoples questions👍, shame about the couple of uncalled for rude ones (some people smh) anyway I have made up my mind to bite the bullet and go for the T8 with all the bells and whistles ! I know its going to cost me at least £2000 but I have so many things this set up would help me achieve, I have been looking at your products over the last few years and finally in a few months I will have the money. I have always bought the best tools I could afford throughout my life and I'm pretty sure a T8 will fit in just nice with them. Perfect😉
Why the secondary bevel?
Nice machine, but it's too slow for real work. Really good for people who don't want to learn how to sharpen various tooling and cutting edges in an efficient way.
Why not use the Tormek turning tool setter TTS 100 to set up?
No se entiende el video, demasiado rápido y quiten la música.
Thank you for the videos, they are very helpful.
I have a Supergrind 4000 what upgrades are available such as as easylock
On the Tormek T-4 with the MB-102 and the standard support bar I cannot position the KS-123 like shown at 15:27 because the leather wheel is closer and the snapping part alignes directly with the threaded section of the aupport bar. Any Ideas to work around this? I really would have liked it for honing also.
I want to get rid of my newly bought drill doctor, it will cut though steel but nothing like a new American made bit.
Can’t find this product anywhere
We have updated this product, it is now the SE-77 Square Edge Jig 😊
Can that work on the bgm-100? Sharpen them on grinder wheels.
I bought a tormeck over at least 20 some years ago and it still works great today but you have made some very nice improvements especially in some of the holders and the knife angle gauge im going to get because the original one I got with my machine I dont really use because its easier to just eyeball the angle.
Is the better than the tormek t2 ???
I am interested price
Can the SVD-186 jig be used for the spindle roughing gouges?
Could you repeat that recipe for the spindle roughing gouges please? Thanks for a great video!
I’m pretty it’s not needed but no mention if the original album stone needs the acc solution?
I have this machine and am, still learning how to use it effectively. Your presentation has shown me how to better use my machine and appreciate some features I did not know. I feel like a pro. I am from Boston, USA.
Not worth the cost
Which alternatives would you suggest?
Doubt that I would use a Japanese water stone to polish a chisel. All of my chisel customers are involved in construction and just want a sharp tool. Aesthetics is not important as they beat the utter crap out of their tools!
Really informative to a beginner - thank you
At approximately 6:10 you can notice that the black nut to secure tighten the leather wheel is kind of shaking/ wobbling . Is actually doing the same thing on my T-8 and the leather wheel wobble aswell . I read on the tormek community that others customers had the same problem. Is it normal? There is something we have to do to fix on our own or we have to send it back to repair?
Very good!! Thanks
I just received my dbs-22 jig yesterday and spend the Saturday afternoon setting it up and figuring out how it works. There is a lot of feeling involved and not a tool I would recommend to any clumbsy person looking for fast quick solution. If it is accuracy and precision you are after then this will be hard to beat in cost. Professional tool sharpeners for machine shops can cost as much as a small lathe and still won't be able to sharpen your knife or woodworking tools. The beauty of Tormek is it's versatility and if you only want to use it to sharpen drill bits you might find it very expensive but if you use it to sharpen the many other cutting edges used around the house and in your DIY toolshed, this is worth it's weight in gold.👍
hi from australia
Forgive me for sounding ignorant, as I am new to Knife Sharpening with the T8. How did you know the angle was 15°?
Just purchased, can't wait to receive it. I have an old stone that is worn off to 200 on my tormek T8. Can I use on it ?
Probably not appropriate on this video but some time I’d like to see how to use the small knife jig. I have trouble getting the knife in straight.
Great to see a manufacturer innovating and improving their product🙂
Since I discovered the asymmetrical apex from the old rig, I’ve been using my whetstone for a few years now. This might be one more chance to bring out my t4. Hope it’ll be worth it!
Hello.. please please please I have told you many times I need lessons in Arabic language I'm talking from Lebanon.my brother send to me tormek T8 from UK but I can't understand everything.thank you
Hej user-qi9zw2ot4d,at the moment we have no possibilitiesto have lessons in Arabic, but CZcams has a automatic translation function. This may help you.
Very good class I would love to see more !
Hej user-dh8ne7mg1s, we have a vast of different Live Sharpening -Classes here on our channel, we will make more on a ongoing sheme
Ezylock and the proprietary Tormek shaft oval locking system make heavy commercial use a breeze. I’d go insane if I had to get out spanners and Allen keys every time I had to adjust the rest height or change a wheel. Your tightening systems have made me a lot of money over the years by increasing my productivity by an incredible amount.
Hej iSharpen, thanks for the feedback, yes the simple rock solid solutions make life easier.
The "every 2 minutes" is a great tip. A high quality hard steel knife will smooth the wheel all by itself and you'll be there for ages. Get those bevels ground as fast as possible. Then refine. Another tip is to use diamond sharpening plates to achieve the same effect. I use an 80 grit diamond plate to achieve the same grade of roughness as the rough side of the SP-650.
Hej iSharpen, yes, that works fine too. The frequent refreshing speeds up the process immense.
This has simplified angle setting no end! Thank you
Hej thomask837, yes, absolutly, saves a lot of time and no hustle with measurements and calculating.
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
🎉
Hej adnankandemir7847, discover the possibilities ;-)
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!
Man , that Olaf is one annoying bellend , please tell him to shut his piehole and let baldy do the presentation 🙄🙄👎👎👎
Do you have any tips about even bevels? One side has a larger bevel than the other.
Hej davec9371, mostly, the shorter was sharpened to little. Just use more passes on the shorter side. Check also the thickness of your blade when using the older SVM-45 or SVM-140, When sharpening quite thick blades you may adjust the angel for the other side. When using the KJ-45 and KJ-140 the blade is self centred.
Maybe I can get a tip here: I have the knife holder (the small one), and am sharpening 25-30cm kitchen knives in a T8. When I slide the knife left/right on the stone, then *sometimes the knife tilts, and with that I sharpen on the edge of the stone and immediately have a nick in the middle of my blade somewhere.* Sure this must be user error, I must hold the knife wrong somehow...?
Hej yxcvmk, when you round off the edges with the Stonegrader SP-650 the risk is minimised. Another tip is to hold the knife not cramped, just comfortable and lose, to have better the contact feeling and the feedback. Last but not least hold the blade straight and don't go to deep.
Does this prevent uneven bevels?
Hej davec9371, this is just to set the angel correct in a very easy matter. Uneven bevels results in the process of sharpening and can have different reasons. You'll find a lot of tips and tricks in our Live Sharpening Classes, especially those when we talk about knives.
Will this work for the frontal vertical base too?
Hej bigd3105, absolute also on the honing wheel if you want to hone in a controlled angel.
