Question: How much pressure do you use while sharpening? Is it constant pressure or do you lower it during burr removal process?
Answer: Pressure is subjective. Generally, more pressure accelerates the grinding process. However, more pressure makes precise angle control difficult. Towards the end of the process with each grit, lighter pressure will allow more control. Hours and hours of sharpening experience is the best guide. |
