The key to consistent and fast honing is repeatability – and the Mk.II honing guide delivers it in spades. Whether you're a sharpening veteran or just starting out, this versatile guide lets you concentrate on sharpening without worrying about controlling blade angle at the same time. 

The standard head uses a clamping bar that registers on the face of the blade. It accepts flat and tapered blades between 1/2" and 2 7/8" wide and up to 15/32" thick, including skew blades. It hones bevel angles from 15° to 54° and back bevels from 10° to 20°.

The narrow-blade head clamps blades from the sides with parallel jaws to ensure they stay square to the jig. It will even hold chisels that are triangular in cross section. It accepts blades from 1/8" to 1 1/2" wide, holding bevel-edged chisels up to 15/32" thick and square-edged blades up to 11/32" thick. It hones bevel angles from 15° to 40° and back bevels from 10° to 20°.

Offering an impressive range of angle settings, the integral blade angle registration jig squares the blade and sets the bevel angle in one easy step. A scale and sighting mark help center blades when using the standard head; the narrow-blade head is self-centering. Once the blade is clamped, the jig slides off the guide.

The interchangeable rollers attach to the clamping heads with a single thumbscrew. The eccentric axle mount lets you add a micro-bevel to any angle setting with a simple turn of a knob. The barrel-shaped camber roller lets you rock the guide slightly to hone a slight curve or camber into a blade edge, eliminating blade tracks when planing.

Don't forget the Honing Compound!

Well worth the cost

For the capabilities of this honing guide, the quality of the components, the ease of use, and the ability to sharpen hand plane and chisel blades to a better edge than most sharpening shops, I recommend you buy the MK II set and a set of quality, diamond sharpening plates and you won't be disappointed.

Great product, solid company

I mostly use power tools in my woodworking. But I bought a bench plane and needed to sharpen the blade. I’m glad I got the deluxe set, which helped me sharpen my chisels. I had no idea how useful properly sharpened chisels are.

I had not bought from OakTree before. But they had a good price, and delivered promptly. I will buy from them again in the future.
