This 8inch sharpener provides woodworkers with a system that efficiently removes steel and sharpens tool edges without any overheating that can ruin blades, thanks to the slow turning abrasive wheel and water-cooling action. The onboard carrying handle makes transportation easier than ever while the mounting brackets combined with the sturdy base prevent walking and wobbling during operation. Reverse the rotational direction with the flip of a switch to meet the needs of any task. The universal tool support adjusts to both horizontal and vertical positions, allowing for jigs and other accessories to be utilized with the machine. A variety of holding jigs make putting the right cutting angle on tools easy and consistent, every time. Leather strop removes any burrs and puts the final razor-sharp, final honed edge on tools. Ideal for wood chisels, carving chisels, lathe tools, plane irons, scissors, knives, axes and more!
