   I have the Tormek and can't fault it.

   Not seen the Scheppach sharpener.

   Oh,lashed out on the top model of Tormek,painful at the time.

   Craig,

   I have the Tormek and love it.  I use it to sharpen chisels and hand plane blades.

   It was difficult shelling out the money for it, but it will last a lifetime.

   I have the jig for sharpeming jointer blades,not bad but have to get then done outside after about 4 sharpens,as they tend to get a bit round.

   I did a search for Scheppach and unless I am not looking at the site correctly, this "system" is filled with persons/companies that do sharpening as a business.

   Love my Tormek.  I can now get a really sharp edge.  Really sharp.  Sharp enough to cut.  Almost dangerously sharp.  Yeah!!!

   Tormek is a very good system.

   I've never heard of the Scheppach -- do you have a website for it?

   Had a look at the Scheppach,looks like a copy of Tormek.

   I have a Scheppach TKU saw bench and it is the best,so I am sure the sharpener would be good,so six of one and half a dozen of the other.
