    Default Leda Viking wet stone grinder?

    Hi Guys,

    Anybody heard of these?

    I am looking at a wetstone grinder, I may have the chance to buy the above,

    Has anbody used one?

    How much would a second hand one be worth?

    I like the look of the Tormek but did not like the look of the price!

    Regards,
    Gary
    PS:needed for chisels, knives, axes, plane blades etc

    Well, I went through the "bowels" of this website trying to find the answer myself,

    Luckily, a search on the web has given me a retail price to work on,

    I bought one years ago. Unfortunately it's not much chop for chisels and only gets used for sharpening the kitchen knives. Paid about $300 for it about 15 or more years ago.

    Thanks Mick,

    Might save up for a Tormeck!

    The old saying, "you get what you pay for" still stands!
