Dual-Use Hand Tool Sharpening Jig

The Dual-Use Hand Tool Sharpening Jig is an ingenious update on our familiar hand tool grinding jig. A removable roller attachment now lets you use this one inexpensive jig to grind tools on your bench grinder or Makita 9820-2, then hone them by hand with perfect angle control. With the roller removed, this jig lays and slides on the tool rest base of the Makita 9820-2 for grinding on the horizontal wheel. With the 1-1/2″ wide brass roller installed, the jig can be used on waterstones, diamond stones or sandpaper. The jig holds plane irons, chisels or skews up to 2-5/8″ wide & 7/16″ thick. Bevel angle is determined by how far the tool protrudes beyond the front of the jig.
