Works great: whetstones

Typical Tormek quality. Simple and easy to use. He sharpened an old hatchet, which he restored and gave to his son. The cutting edge went from a jagged mess to a superior edge in minutes.

Pros
  • wedge stop holds ax firmly in position
Cons
  • unreliable

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool - power and hand tools

Although simpler than most sharpeners, this tool does the job perfectly and is priced right for its simplicity. I use my axes a lot and they come out sharp and beautiful without wasting time or metal.

Pros
  • Grinding wheel can be removed to make room for an ax handle
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Expected Quality of Whetstones

This is a durable tool and a reliable method of sharpening ax heads. Just remember that shaping and sharpening are not the same thing. Low speed water-cooled grinders not designed to remove large amounts of material quickly.

Pros
  • All you need to do is hold and wield the ax with your hands
Cons
  • A shady purchase for the elderly
