    Hello Bob,
    This is what we call now a diamond point, on this video I'm not in accordance with the use of the wheel freehand, it's dangerous if it broke and that can comes easily.
    When I was an apprentice we learn to cut the rear angle on the same grinding tool we use normally and with the protections included, now it's no more authorized to learn that to apprentices because people have the bad attitude to take protections out, but when made correctly it's without danger.
