FULL DESCRIPTION

With this premium performance sharpener and wide range of jigs, you can shape, sharpen and hone any type of edge tool to a mirror finish. It is powered by a reversible variable speed permanent-magnet motor, which will maintain the ideal speed, regardless of load applied. The low speed range means there is no risk that the edge becomes overheated and losing its hardness, giving you full control of the sharpening process, so that you do not remove more steel than necessary, making your tools last much longer. 

The 220 grit aluminium oxide grinding wheel, which is cooled in a bath of water, offers the most effective combination of efficient steel removal, smooth surface finish and long stone life. When you need to refine an edge, you can use the stone grader to convert the surface of the stone to 1000 grit. Having shaped and created the edge on the stone, you finish the sharpening process on the leather honing wheel, using the honing compound to gently remove the burr, prior to honing and mirror polishing the edge. The reversible motor makes the honing and polishing processes easier and faster.

The body of the sharpener features a carry handle, is rust proof and made from impact-resistant ABS with vertical and horizontal steel bushes to provide firm support for the universal jig holder. The water trough has an extra wide mouth to prevent spillage when sharpening long edge tools and can be removed without tools for cleaning. The sharpener comes complete with a universal jig holder, straight edge jig for chisels and plane irons, set up jig, stone grader and honing compound. 

Rated for continuous use this is a premium wetstone sharpener that allows you to add consistent and exact cutting geometry to fine edge tools including chisels, turning tools, carving tools, knives, and plane irons. ©

DANGER. HIGHLY ADDICTIVE.

Seriously, DO NOT buy this ,aching if you have anything else to do. Of course, a new toy arrives in the post (after a very short wait, even over the Christmas period I must add) and of course you have to open it and have a little play. I don't think I have ever found anything as addictive as sharpening things on this machine. It's just so easy and I guarantee you'll be searching the toolbox and kitchen drawers for things to sharpen. It's a great little machine, dead easy to set up and use and will put an incredibly keen edge on even your most knackered chisels. Wish I'd bought one of these years ago. Thoroughly recommended.

Nice piece of kit this

Nice piece of kit this, wish I'd have bought one years ago, was always thinking tormek but couldn't afford one, saw this and thought... yeah, can afford that and took the plunge... in one hour I've managed to bring my plane irons, spokeshaves and a load of chisels to razor edges effortlessly...
Solid machine, quality wheel, good leather strop, reversible variable speed makes dual functions a breeze... this has put the love back in to.my tool care. Highly recommended 👌

The complete kit for sharpening my plane and chisel blades which I now find to be very sharp

The complete kit for sharpening my plane and chisel blades which I now find to be very sharp. This now does help me a great deal as I have Parkinson's and cannot sharpen by hand anymore.

The price is very good for what you get.

I will be purchasing more items from Rutland.

The only thing I would suggest is a better instruction manual for beginners as there are people who would struggle using the different attachments. Other than that a very good deal.
