The easiest to use sharpening/honing guide on the market!
No measuring blade protrusion!
No extra angle setup jigs to use! Simply loosen locking knobs and select your angle and the angle set positively with mating detents to achieve the primary OR micro bevel.
No unstable "unicycle" guides!
- 4 sealed radial bearings for rollers
-front bearings are spring loaded for a .010 inch "give"
The model SS3 is able to hone chisels, plane blades and now scraper plane blades up to 6.5 mm thick and up to 75 mm wide! Use the SS3 over stones up to 9.5 mm thick and 100 mm wide, or if using the 'Scary Sharp' technique, on a flat surface such as your table saw top or surface plate with abrasive paper or pastes! Positive stop detents for setting your bevel angle from 5 to 60 degrees. 'Back-bevelling' your plane blades could not be easier using the new 5 or 10 degree positions!
The model SS2 is able to straddle stones up to 50 mm thick and 100 mm wide. Hone blades up to 6.5 mm thick and now up to 75 mm wide! Positive stop detents for setting your bevel angle from 5 to 60 degrees. Honing a “back bevel” on your plane blades to increase the effective pitch angle for that tough, figured board, could not be easier using the new 5 to 10 degree positions!
The model SS1 is able to straddle stones up to 25 mm thick and 75mm wide. Hone blades up to 6.5mm thick and 67 mm wide. Positive stop detents for setting your bevel angle from 15 to 45 degrees. As in all models, 4 sealed, steel, roller bearings allow for the effortless gliding back and forth. The front rollers 'give' a quarter of a millimetre to accommodate blade material removal during honing.
Converts the standard 1 inch model #SS1 or the #SS3 to be able to use up to 2 inch thick stones! Has the extended range, positive stop detents from 5 to 60 degrees! (If used on the model #SS1 you will need to keep track of your position outside of the SS1's 15 to 45 degree marks).
Convert any model for surface plate work! (will work with any model but when used with the #SS1, you will need to keep track of the detent position outside of the SS1's 15 to 45 degree marks).
