well let me tell you this story......3 of us use variable speed veil's. we all use the veil arm, we all use the wolf clamp.
as far as i know, we all use a160 trizacts (120grit) or 120/150 grit by others and the scissors are outstanding.....THESE ARE: kitchen, fabric, upholstery scissors.......they need teeth to grab and hold the material being cut.
our buddy doug r in texas always used a65 trizacts (320 grit or so depending on who's chart you look at)....i tried them and i considered them fine.
if you ever watched the veil video on sharpening scissors, he uses a a16 trizact at 1200 grit.
i think the TAS white wheel is 150 grit, that should tell you something........and like 3400 rpms.
now, my other two scissor buddies both have bought TAS's and no longer use their veil's AND THEY BOTH told me the TAS does a much nicer job and seem much sharper than the belt ever did. both said it took a bit to get use to the speed, but once mastered, the end result on any scissor was outstanding.
my 2 cents.
