Other Knives:
If you want to repeat an existing angle but don’t know the right angle of your knife, an easy way is to use a black permanent marker.
Mark the edge of your knife on both sides, set the angle that you think is right on the knife jig, and test to sharpen just once.
Look at the edge and adjust it to the right angle, and repeat this procedure until you get the right angle.
After you got the angle right you sharpen the knife on Tormek T-2 as usual and polish it afterwards.
