## Description

Product Description This is a great honing fluid, whether you own a Tormek sharpening system or not (and seriously, if you don’t, and like sharp tools, look into getting one.) This honing compound is used straight on the T-3, T-4, or T-7 leather wheel strop (or the profiled leather honing wheels) to remove burrs and polish tool edges to razor sharpness. Used after the grinding stone, this 3-micron honing compound (approximately 8000 grit) will buff and polish the edges of Tools, Knives, Wood Chisels, Plane Irons, Spoke Shaves, Carving Tools, Lathe Turning Tools, and Scissors. One application should last for 5–10 tools. You can also use this on a stand-alone leather strop if you wish (but again, if you are interested in sharp tools for your workshop, the Tormek water-cooled sharpening systems really can’t be beat.) From the Manufacturer The Tormek PA-70 Honing Compound is used straight on the T-3, T-4, T-7 leather wheel strop or the profiled leather honing wheels to remove burrs and polish tool edges to razor sharpness this 3-micron honing compound. Grain averages 3 microns (approximately 8000 grit). This will buff and polish the edge of tools Knives, Wood Chisels, Plane Irons, Spoke Shaves, Carving Tools, Lathe Turning Tools, Knives, and Scissors after using the Tormek Grindstone. One application should last for 5–10 tools. Work the honing compound into the leather. Do not let the compound dry, apply more oil if necessary.

Review: Worth the money... - works great on a strop, would buy again.
Review: The name is a little misleading....but what a great product! - Technically this is a buffing, polishing or strop compound. It will keep the fine strop finish on your blade like no other product short of home made 12,000 grit diamond dust paste...nothing beats that on a slightly damp strop, rough side 8,000 grit then smooth side 12,000 grit...but I digress. I've been using this as a strop compound an it lasts virtually forever unless you just sharpen blades all day in which case the strop leather disintegrates before the paste is completely used up. On veg tan hide 12-14 oz. I dampened the leather very slightly then rubbed a small dab along the surface areas that I know I will use on the rough side. I then embedded 12,000 grit diamond dust in the very slightly oiled smooth side. Such a strop, reapplying the paste about every 15,000 uses should last for years. Note: I'm Leary of using this on any buffing wheel that is not regulated to 1200 rpm or even a little slower as the wheel dries out and begins to shed the paste rapidly at standard 3200 rpm buffer wheel speeds. But I digress.. I tend to re-polish my blade on the strop after every 4-6" cut in my leather cutting. A sharp blade cuts smoothly! So I strop my blade at least 700-1000 times per day. Doing this with this paste means only needing to fully sharpen and restore blade angle ever few months. This paste is a pleasure to use...though I'm not sure if it would actually be useful in 'honing'.

*by T***4 on July 29, 2020*

I can put a shaving sharp edge on my knives, but I'm always looking for a better/easier way to sharpen. Not sure what I was expecting with this honing compound... I guess I just felt that my strop wasn't quite burnishing the edge like I thought it should. Last night I had 10lb of beef to slice up very, very thinly for making jerky (that's a LOT of slices!). The meat wasn't quite fully thawed. Anyway, I pulled my Shun Kanso chef's knife (AUS8 steel @ 61Rc) from the drawer and it already had a fine, stropped edge on it. Testing the edge by gently attempting to slide it down the hair on the back of my head, it was nicely catching the hair. I'd call that edge about 95% of what I'm generally capable of achieving. But because I had just received this compound, I wanted to see if, or how much, I could improve it. My strop is a barbers strop - it's a 3" wide strip of thick leather about 30" long. It's well used. First I used a butter knife with a slight serration to kinda scrape the napped side of my strop, and tease up the fibers. Then I gave it a good spray with WD40, then applied 9 little dots of the honing compound. I spent about 2 minutes stropping the chef's knife in the usual way - a few strokes on one side, then a few strokes on the other. I probably made 20 strokes per side, total. What I ended up with is the most ridiculously sharp edge I've ever created in my life, and every bit the equal to the very best Zero Tolerance, Shun or Benchmade factory edge I've ever experienced. I mean, just scalpel sharp. Doing the "hair test", it instantly bites into the hair - and actually shaved a few even though I was being extremely gentle about it. Compared to what I'm generally able to achieve, I'd say this edge was probably 125-150%. Just incredibly sharp. So I went to work thinly slicing my slightly frozen beef. It was cutting amazingly. I made it about 1/2 way through the 10lb and even though it was cutting great, I tested the edge. It wasn't *quite* as sharp as when I began cutting, but was still very, very sharp. So I finished the job. I probably made 1000 or more cuts in total. When finished, the edge was still sharp enough to cleanly cut a piece of paper, but was ready for a touchup. I gave the edge a few licks on the strop and retested - surgically sharp again. Shaving a few hairs on my arm - it's as if the hair just jumps off my arm in fear of the edge even coming close to them! I've very, very impressed with the edge I can get with this compound. It's far better than any other edge I've ever created. I'm not "gods gift" to sharpening, and I'm not saying I'm the best - but I don't suck and this stuff has really upped my game.
