Freehand or fixtured-grind with exact bevel setting using the included Knife Jig and calculator

Click here for the Bladesman Knife Bevel Angle Calculator

For an accurate bevel angle use the Bladesman Knife Calculator — input your desired bevel angle, then set the knife jig to the calculated Grip Length

Three Easy Steps to an Exact Knife Apex

1: Enter desired Bevel Angle into the calculator

2: Enter which Support Guide Height you will use. Choose 0.7″ for smaller blades and angles, 1″, or 2″ for larger blades and angles. The predetermined support guide positions allow for quick, precision setup, for a wide range of knife sizes and bevel angles

3. The calculator outputs the Grip Length — the length from the knife bevel to the knife jig collar

Accurate Knife Bevel Setting

• The Bladesman directly measures the clearance between the guide rail and the platen (simple triangle), the most accurate and consistent way of setting knife bevels, eliminating numerous variables.
  

Made in Canada

• Designed by Jeff Toycen, the Bladesman is made in small runs in Canada with a unique attention to detail and the needs of the production knife sharpener.  Working with knifemakers and sharpeners over the last ten years he took what he was hearing, got busy and the Bladesman was created.

Cool, Quiet and Powerful

• Created specifically for knife sharpeners, the Bladesman’s variable speed and 1 inch belt protect the blade from heat damage and produce accurate knife bevels for a very low cost-per-blade. We kept a keen eye on comfort, cycle time, accuracy and consumables.
