    Good value

    I bought this with the full realization it was not top quality but have been surprised at how well it has worked so far. Grips all my flat chisels and plane irons with no problem. I have been able to accurately restore correct angles on several of my tools and it is simple to set up and use. Good value for a tool I never knew I needed so bad.

  • Top critical review

    Crude machining. Chisel hones out crooked because aluminum notches to hold chisel are too crude.

    Chisel hones out crooked because aluminum notches to hold chisel are too crude. I've seen online videos to alter the guide by using files, but if the left/right axis is off by even a little, then your chisel will sharpen/hone crooked. Bummer, because I used it with plate glass and fine sandpaper to hone my hollow ground chisels and it makes for a good hone with great control to slowly eliminate the burr. You get what you pay for. The design and machining are worth just about $15. Too much flex and no available adjustment to hone square and true.

  • should have bought one years ago

    I have for years sharpened by hand trying to keep the angle correct, I wasted much time. This device is excellent: simply clamp the blade, extend the blade to get the angle you desire, tighten the blade clamp ( easy hand turn knurled head) and just roll the edge on the abrasive. Small changes in extended blade length moves the part of the blade being abraded a small amount, so adjustment is important. I take the blade to the sharpness I want once it is clamped. The finer the grit the sharper the edge. Don't forget to smooth flat the back edge with very fine grit. This honing guide makes it easier than I expected, it clamps easily, it rolls smoothly and I had no problem with rocking side to side, even with thin wood chisel blades. My hand plane and wood chisels are now razor sharp. Excellent.

  • Great quality, nice edge

    I bought this honing guide to use for my chisels and my planer blades. I must say it does a great job. The only drawback is that I find going forwards and backwards on the chisels or planers takes a good bit longer than going side to side. When all is said and done, this honing guide puts a great angle on your blades.

  • Great product

    This is a simple device of exceptional quality that does a remarkable job. This honing guide is easy to use yet results in a high quality, extremely sharp edge with little effort. The results I achieved were exactly as advertised.

  • Exactly what I needed for my neglected plane irons

    It was exactly what I needed to refurbish plane irons that needed some TLC. Haven't tried them on my chisels, yet. The wheel on the bottom was a little sticky, but some lubricant and use has pretty much fixed that problem. All in all, good product, without spending a bunch. Cheers

  • Very flimsy - Poor chisel/iron grip

    Very difficult to get a good firm and square grip on the chisel or iron to hold a consistent angle. Even the YouTube video showing how to make it better didn't help much. I threw it in the garbage and went back to free-hand sharpening.

  • Good!

    Was as I, (actually a little better than I), expected because I researched the product a bit first. Its definitely a good quality honing guide for the price. Shipping was quick. Good experience.

  • "Easily Hone a perfect bevel on plane cutters and chisels every time"

    Excellent, sturdy tool at a fair price for maintaining correct angles on blade during sharpening. Tool includes settings for both primary and secondary bevels and is easy to use properly.
