Hi Jack – Sounds like you’re pointing in the right direction – go for the wet stones. I went a step farther and got the best – the Tormek T7 and I haven’t regreted my choice. The price is scary but the results are professional. I know some recomend the Jet or Grizzly imitations which are a lot cheaper, but do your research and most point to the Tormek. My wife and I are in DC for the week so I’m not home to search for the comparrison link, but I know the’re there. I’ll give you more info when I get home next week, but do your reseach and choose carefully.

My results have been perfectly sharppened lathe tools, expensive kitchen knives, and everything but circular saw blades. I’ve been so impressed with the T7, I even bought their $150 jointer knives jig and successfully sharpened my planner and jointer knives. This is from a guy who couldn’t even sharpen an ax.
