Review on πŸ”ͺ Maximize Precision with Tormek Multi Jig Sharpening: The Ultimate Straight Sharpener by John Destruction

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Better than manual sharpening of oblique chisels, but IMHO the price is still too high.

. But I bought it anyway and am very happy with it. It seems a little pricey for what it is, but it does the trick. On the other hand, my time assembling the lamp is worth something, and it will be difficult for me to make something so versatile. I kept thinking about the best way to make a sculpting and sharpening jig on my worksharp. Anything that would work with multiple bevels and bevel angles seemed to take some time to get right. Based on other reviews and Tormek's reputation, I gritted my teeth and bought this. It took me about fifteen minutes to figure out how to assemble it and adjust the depth and angle to get the shape I wanted. This is not intuitive. It worked as expected and exceeded my high expectations! This is a very useful device. After figuring it out, the reset for the left show and other angles only takes a few minutes.

Pros
  • Can grind both bevels symmetrically when the tool is turned upside down
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
