Kuzmin Sickle
Would anyone with experience using a Kuzmin Sickle share how the base
comes out when this cutting tool. For example does the base come out with what the best base peelers call a mirror smooth finish. Never had any luck with a brand new Swix scraper getting a peel. It always made linear like gouges in the base.

What I'd like to now from Kuzmin is if polishing is relevant or not. And, if yes, what king of polishing : The entire industry rotary polishing tools have a vertical axis and it sounds better than common ski rotary brush to actually remove hairs and bristles.

ski polishing tools are derived from wax removing tools and, IMHO, are
not optimal at polishing.
