Sharpening:
Use a diamond file or diamond plate flat across the top face. To gain best results and increase the longevity of the cutter this simple procedure should be done little and often. If the cutter gets chipped use the TurnMaster cutter holder to reshape the profile on the Robert Sorby ProEdge using a diamond belt or on a grinding wheel using diamond or other high density abrasive material. Sharpens to: 0.7 microns Hardness: 90 RC Material: micro grade tungsten carbide.
