Removes guesswork from setting bevel anglesFor bevel edge or firmer chisels and plane ironsAll metal constructionThe Axminster Rider honing guide is very similar in design to the classic Eclipse 36. It is an ideal tool for achieving a consistent bevel angle, everytime you sharpen a blade. The guide offers two tool-clamping positions. The upper jaw accommodates blades up to 78 mm (3-1/8") wide. A lower V-groove secures bevel edge chisels or thin tools from 3 mm (1/8") to 48 mm (1-7?8") wide. The bevel angle depends on the blade's projection in front of the guide. Typically, plane irons in the upper jaw: 50 mm (2") gives 25° and 38 mm (1-1/2") gives 30°. Chisels or blades placed between the lower jaws: 40 mm (1-9/16") for 25° or 30 mm (1-3/16") for 30°. We recommend constructing a very simple jig to make setting quick and simple. Using a jig will guarantee consistent bevel angles everytime you sharpen. The guide’s 19 mm (3/4") diameter by 12 mm (1/2") wide roller allows you to hone both straight cutting edges or, by slightly rocking the guide, put a crown on an edge.
