Review on CartLife Sharpening Sharpener: Effortless Chisel Clamping and Sharpening by Tim Burns

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for sharpening

It sharpened my chisels. The angle to use is listed on the little chart that came with it, but it didn't work with my Stanley bits so I looked at the angle and had it broken. There is a small groove that the chisel should fit in, but only one of my six chisels actually fits in the groove - no big deal, just made sure they were straight and clamped correctly and started grinding. This isn't a precision sharpening system, but with a little care when setting it up, you can get things very sharp. I bought it because it's a cheap quick fix and I'm very happy with it. I'd still love to have a 1K Japanese Wet Stone Sharpening System, but this little guy is going to help me make things to sell so I can get money to buy them.

Pros
  • general purpose tools
Cons
  • unreliable
