Folks, This will definitely be happening, Im offshore just crossing the Equator for the 4th time in my career, en route to Brazil from Gran Canaries Spain anyway a package arrived at my home from Protech that I was not expecting, I am guessing it will be the TGO Dark Angel Prototype, I will be home in 3 weeks then I will know pricing and launch the official thread, God Bless you all!

Affinity tool works is the USA importer for Tormek, I need to give them some serious praise this my friends goes beyond Customer service! Sadly a few weeks back my brand new Tormek T8 had a unusual noise starting to be a regular issue, I called the company I bought it from, they put me in touch with Affinity tool. Just through email I let them know all was well a couple of days earlier as the noise appeared to go away, A lady from the company called me and said they would like me to send my Machine to them, while on the phone, I started the machine and sure enough the noise was back, this noise was there with everything removed so I knew for a fact it was the motor, possibly a bearing they sent me an overnight Fed Ex shipping label that they paid for, I told them I needed my machine back ASAP, they overnighted me a brand new T7 to use while my new motor comes from Sweden, I still have this T7 setup and I love it, i started thinking it would be great to have 2 Tormek I could keep my Black stone that I use for sharpening on the T8 and put the Japanese water stone on the T7 last week I asked them what they would charge me if I kept the system, $499.95 was the answer, this is a great price, so I said I'll think about it. I sent them an email asking what would they charge me just for the machine as I never used the standard stone, I never received a reply. Today this AM I sent an email saying I really did not need another system, so I would be sending their T7 back once my T8 arrives. She replied saying that is fine if I want to send it back, but her offer still stands. I asked again what if I kept the machine and send back the stone and other items I do not need, what would my price be? She replied $0.00 please send the stone back and keep the T7 your T8 will ship back to you next week, Happy Easter! Needless to say I am overwhelmed by this, sorry I just had to share!

I'll let you all know this knife will have a Black Body, Black Ion Bond blade, Black Lip mother of Pearl push button and Dave is doing a few engraving of the TGO logo, I will let the majority rule on choosing the one we go with

Just got off the phone with Dave, he is awaiting the blades to get back from Ionbond then he will build the Prototype im looking forward to this knife, it will be very cool

They are still working on it, I'll post pictures here when I have them and I'll start an official thread when I have times and pricing

I have mastered my Tormek, in fact I re sharpened all of my Pocket knives just to be sure and its awesome If you want a knife sharpened $20.00 Includes Priority Mail return shipping, this is for a Razor Sharp Utility Edge My Wicked Edge prices will be the same as they were

I absolutely love this system, I sharpened every fixed blades that I have and they are Wicked Sharp, I ordered the Black stone to replace the stock one, it will sharpen graphite coated steels and cuts through the super steels with ease, when i can ill buy the Japanese Waterstone, my friend in Norway who makes the absolute best fixed blade knives I have ever seen advised me to get it as it will put mirror edges equal to my Wicked Edge he is the one who convinced me to buy the T8 and following his advice I have the skills to do all knives now

Here is my Tormek T8 next to my Gen 3 Wicked Edge, the two best sharpening systems on the planet

I am now comfortable enough with this system to do high end knives, I love this sharpening system

Nothing picture worthy, just extremely sharp I did not mirror edge them

I just sharpened all of my kitchen knives and all of my wife's sewing and craft sizzors, observations? i freaking love this machine!

One I recently sharpened

I charge $25.00 for my best Wicked Edge and $7.00 return Priority Mail Shipping PM me what knives or knife you want sharpened

The knife in the picture above and and a couple of others are available for $425.00

I will have 5 of these in different color scales, these have Tanto blades CPM20CV steel Stonewashed

This is what I have always heard as well,

There may be more TGO knives, this however will be the last Protech I will still be a dealer for them so whenever any of you want one just contact me, For those of you who are asking about price, I will certainly let you know when Dave gives me the details, again the price will be inline with all TGO knives very comparable to Blade Hq pricing if you want a ballpark figure

I could not have said it better my friend, I have owned plenty of Microtechs over the years but I continue to not deal them and that should say volumes to the masses why I love Protech so much

If I do this run this will be the last Protech TGO knife that is done The Dark angel is a fantastic knife and will be around the same price point as all other TGO knives have been, far less than any Microtech can be had for Dave is going to come up with a sample Prototype when he does if I like it I will post pictures of it here
