Perfecting my skills with the Tormek T-8| knife sharpening

[@norwegiantinkerer]

You really need to grind the bolster down. It's the only way for the cutting edge to come in contact with the cutting board near the heel of the blade.👍

I was tempted to grind it down but like I said in the video that I have a strong hunch that the bolster is hollow. I’ve seen it before and deal with these type of knives from time to time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and I agree with you on the matter. Stay tuned! More sharpening videos coming soon on this specific clients order.👍🔪

@ it's a shame that some knives have hollow bolsters. It makes them just use-and-throw-away.
Thank you for sharing.

@ it really is a shame! Brand companies trying to stretch their materials to make more profits.
