Hi guys I have just got a cheep qctp for my chester comet/sieg c4 and it came with a parting tool and holder but the tool appears to have no cutting edge ? are there proper angles to grind these things to ? :scratch: The tool post the parting tool |

Just grind the top flat leave the end as is |

I may be wrong, but think the top is supposed to remain as it is, and any sharpening done by grinding entire the angled front end back a little, thus preserving the angle it makes with the top. Andy |

I have one of those blades. I've only ever ground the front face, right against the the grinder wheel. |

Only grind on the front face. :D :D Cheers :beer: Don |
