Honing Guides

Sharpening guides for honing plane irons and chisels are indispensable when a clean and straight bevel needs to be maintained or restored. For beginners, a sharpening guide makes it possible to perform such tasks. Experienced sharpeners appreciate them because the work becomes faster and easier.

Not all sharpening guides are equally suitable for everything. Due to their different constructions, Japanese and European blades each have different requirements for the sharpening guide. Always ensure that the blade is clamped as squarely as possible. This is especially important for plane irons used in planes with a tight mouth and without lateral adjustment.

The key to fast and consistent sharpening is repeatability—Veritas sharpening guides offer plenty of that. Whether you have been sharpening tools all your life or are just starting out, the versatile sharpening aids from Veritas help you focus on the sharpening without having to constantly check the sharpening angle. This way, you can sharpen reliably, consistently, and precisely. Veritas offers the sharpening guide in three versions, allowing you to choose the one that best suits your working style and tools.

The range is expanded with simple and cost-effective sharpening aids that make it easier to get started in this important area of tool maintenance.
