You can accurately sharpen to the same angle time after time, and never worry about bluing your blades because the water keeps it cool.<br />Expensive but it works!<br />Best regards<br />PhillyPhillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053965967319875654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15320699.post-10245328803193495412007-01-28T15:55:00.000+00:002007-01-28T15:55:00.000+00:00Though the thought of the sight of you attempting ...Though the thought of the sight of you attempting it with waterstones had <i>me</i> laughing...

Let's see, three sets of knives on two machines being sharpened every month...adds up.<br /><br />Splitting the cost is a good idea.<br /><br />Take care, MikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
