Blue Spruce Honing Guide

Product Description

The new Blue Spruce Honing Guide turns the traditional honing guide design upside down and clamps the chisel from above, rather than below. And, while most honing guides have the roller directly under the clamp, the Blue Spruce Honing Guide wheels are offset. The Honing Guide will fit chisels and plane blades from 1/8" to 1-1/2", while Blue Spruce Bench Chisels, Butt Chisels, Dovetail Chisels and Paring Chisels fit in the new Honing Guide like they were made for each other... because they were.

In addition to working with shorter blades, the Honing Guide has a smaller footprint on your bench stone. Whether you’re sharpening a butt chisel or the longest, widest paring chisel, you can use more of the stone for sharpening and less for supporting. This guide can effectively sharpen our Suminagashi Japanese Chisels which are notoriously difficult to fit in guides.

Simply clamp your chisel in the guide, adjust the bevel angle with the provided angle setting fixture and go to your bench stone. The synthetic rubber tires roll across your water or oil stone effortlessly, without causing the surface wear possible with metal rollers. With the new Blue Spruce Honing Guide, you’ll get the job done better, faster and more accurately than you can with freehand methods or many other sharpening guides.

The new Blue Spruce Honing Guide is precision machined from stainless steel and anodized aluminum so there’s nothing to rust, ever. The Honing Guide and angle setting fixture are sold as a set.

• Works perfectly with both short and full-length tools. 
• Uses more of your bench stone for quicker sharpening.
• Precision angle setting fixture for fast, accurate and repeatable results.
• Corrosion-free.
