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. ©

Perfect!! Easy set up and great sharpening

Perfect!! Easy set up and great sharpening bought the gouge jig with it and have great easily sharpened tools. Very impressed will certainly be coming back for more and recommending Rutlands. If there was one thing I would have liked it would be the facility to bolt the equipment down.

Great value

Been dreaming about wet stone grinding for ages (not literally!! )but have always been put off due to budget . The Rutlands wet stone sharpener came up on the daily price drop offer and I couldn’t resist ! I have so far sharpened up a few chisels and a couple of plane irons and the chrome like mirror finish and razor sharp edges have been amazing ! The tool seems well made for the price, accurate and is a dream to use . Long term durability I cannot say yet but so far I have been delighted.

Great wet stone grinder

Great wet stone grinder. Managed to get this when on offer and was a fantastic purchase. It’s the first wet stone grinder I’ve ever had so unable to compare it to any other ones but well worth the money in my opinion.
