Honing Guide for Japanese Plane Blades
Available, delivery time: 1-3 businessdays within Germany
Product information
The Grintec K2 sharpening guide is designed specifically to accommodate the unique characteristics of Japanese plane irons. Compared to Western plane irons, Japanese plane irons are much shorter and thicker.
The thickness tapers from the back end towards the bevel. Additionally, the sides are not always parallel. Due to the lateral bevel at the edge, the cutting edge is narrower than the body of the plane iron. These features present a particular challenge in designing a sharpening guide. With this sharpening guide, you can easily make all preset adjustments, especially the bevel angle, using an included template before inserting the iron.
Once the iron is inserted, further fine adjustments can be made, ensuring that you always achieve the desired result.
