Product review (5 stars): Tormek
Although the honing wheel is a little pricey, it performs well. It keeps v-tools and gouges razor sharp. Wood carving requires sharp tools. The honing wheel makes this quick and effortless. As i plan my next cut on the project, i hone the tool i am using on the honing wheel , ensuring the tool is at peak sharpness. I think some people who try wood-carving are discouraged by trying to use dull tools. Hats off to Tormek for another great product. I have had my Tormek for about twelve years now. It still works great.
