The tormek wet grinder is the main method that we use to put the final edge on knives that we sharpen. The tormek uses a wheel shaped stone so it puts a concave shape on the edge. This concave shape makes a difference in overall sharpness and makes the edge easer to maintain. The tormek is not the fastest method of sharpening but it is renound for the premium edge quality that it creates. It is favored by sharpeners that choose quality over speed. Well it is possible to get good quality edges on a belt grinder it is a different type of edge known as a “V” ground because of its v shape .
