Great update to a already great sharpener
I use the 6 micron lapping film, followed up with 4/2 micron strop. gives a perfect mirror polish. could stop after using the lapping film honestly
Used with an angle guide AND placed at the exact same hight on the side of the knife each time when measuring, this stone can do wonders to an already sharp edge. Place 3 Micron Diamond Lapping Film on the Blank Glass Paten side to use after the 3000 grit stones. Refine with 1/0.5 Micron Diamond Emulsion and Leather Strops Pack and you can have a fast VERY sharp edge. (Just keep in mind that 3000 Grit Diamond Stones take 30 knives to break in),
Could not determine why my right-side Pivot Screw continued to come loose after thirty to forty strokes. Your Tech read my email and immediately sent me two new units. Works fine now. Don't ever remember a screw having a defective thread. Anyway, am back to sharpening all our knives. The more experience with the unit...the sharper the knives are now. My wife, a retired Professional German Chef, is even impressed!
