Tormek T-4 Sharpening Machine
The New Tormek T-4 has many improvements over the old T-3. Vital functions like the motor and the main shaft are mounted in a zinc cast top which includes the integrated sleeves for the Universal Support. This advanced design ensures an unbeatable precision for the Universal Support, which is the foundation of the Tormek jig system. Some of the improvements include:
In the USA the Tormek is well known among woodworkers, but in Europe it is widely used for sharpening knives and scissors in the food processing, leather and rubber industries.
While the Tormek wet grinder is sold as a complete system, for knife sharpening I recommend using the Tormek to grind the correct bevels then using paper wheels or an RS-150 Duo sharpener to hone and strop the edge. This is much faster than using the Tormek leather strop and takes advantage of the strong points of both systems.
