Used in conjunction with an oil or water stone this ideal tool will sharpen wood chisels (bevel and firmer edge) and plane irons from 1/16in to 2.5/8in wide, at the correct angle. The design ensures the squareness of the sharpening edge is guaranteed every time. With index so that the user may easily select the correct angles for plane or chisel blades.

The key to consistent and fast honing is repeatability and this guide delivers it in spades. We’ve redesigned the Veritas honing guide starting from first principles, increasing its range, capacity and accuracy. The main difference in our Mk.II version is its integral blade registration system that squares the blade and sets the bevel angle in one easy step. 1. High-angle range (25° to 54°) 2. Standard-angle range (15° to 40°) 3. Back-bevel range (10° to 20°) The Mk.II Honing Guide has three gross bevel-angle range configurations: a high-angle range (25° to 54° in seven increments), a standard-angle range (15° to 40° in six increments), and a third range for back bevels. The guide body has two mating components that lock together precisely, secured by a single thumbscrew. The registration jig slides onto the guide body, centering and squaring the blade using an integral fence. The blade stop has discrete positions for preset angles. The clamping mechanism registers on the face of the blade (the unbevelled side), and is designed to accept flat and tapered blades, as well as blades with irregular geometry. The clamp bar is specifically shaped to securely hold the tool blade, preventing shifting. Once the blade is secured, the registration jig is removed. The Mk.II retains the three-position eccentric roller of our original model, a feature that is universally liked as it allows a micro-bevel to be honed quickly and accurately after only a simple turn of a knob. No other action is needed and results are completely predictable. The 2" wide roller is stable for even the narrowest of blades. The honing guide can easily accommodate chisels as narrow as 1/4" and blades as wide as 2-7/8" and up to 1/2" thick. Also works with short blades such as spokeshave blades. Manufactured from die-cast zinc alloy, with precision-machined brass and steel parts.

There is no better kit for someone sharpening with waterstones for the first time. The kit contains a 200mm(8") by 62mm(2.1/2") 800 grit stone for initial grinding, a 175mm(7") by 62mm(2.1/2") 6,000 grit fine finishing stone, a non-skid waterstone holder and a Nagura stone for cleaning off the glazed surface of the fine stone. All you need to get started.

A Simple to use tool for Honing the plane irons Which can be set to Produce the correct cutting angle. The angle achieved by following the marker on the angle marking scale attached to the guide. The Plane iron is tightened on the top with the knurled screw. The free movement of tool is ensured by the steel, Which allow unrestricted movement over the entire oilstone surface. To make the extra use of the guide originally made exclusively honing the Plane iron of the carpenters Adjustable Iron Planes such as: Smoothing, Jack, fore and the jointer Planes, Attachment suitable for holding & honing the plane iron of the Spoke Shave Planes are introduced, as depicted above.
