Get a flat bevel, or convert horizontal mounts to vertical
The MB-102 Multi Base allows you to sharpen on the side of Tormek’s diamond grinding wheels. This results in a completely flat bevel, which is preferable in certain applications. The MB-102 Multi Base is fully adjustable for optimal settings for each tool and jig. It also converts the horizontal mounts to vertical, for easier access when sharpening knives edge trailing, and for guided honing using knife jigs (so-called Frontal Vertical Base or FVB).
Μου αρέσει να μαγειρεύω, να ψήνω και να κόβω. Έχω χρησιμοποιήσει πολλά ακονιστήρια αλλά αποφάσισα να κάνω ένα δώρο στον εαυτό μου που θα μου κρατήσει για μια ζωή. Αυτό το ακονιστήρι είναι πανεύκολο στη χρήση. Χρειάζονται μόνο μερικές δοκιμές για να το συνηθίσεις. Λατρεύω το γεγονός ότι δεν χρειάζεται να ξοδεύω χρόνο για κοφτερά μαχαίρια. Δεν είμαι μόνο εγώ ενθουσιασμένος, και οι φίλοι μου το λατρεύουν. Και φυσικά η 8ετής εγγύηση δείχνει πόσο σίγουρη είναι η Tormek για το προϊόν της.
Μην φοβηθείτε να επενδύσετε σε αυτό το ακονιστήρι. Έχω ξοδέψει πολλά χρήματα στο παρελθόν σε διάφορα άλλα, αλλά κανένα δεν κράτησε. Αυτό είναι μακράν το καλύτερο ακονιστήρι που θα μπορούσε να έχει ένα εστιατόριο. Είναι πανεύκολο στη χρήση, πολύ γρήγορο, και προσέξτε γιατί κάνει τα μαχαίρια πολύ κοφτερά!
When you sharpen on top of the curved part of the grinding wheel you get a slightly concave bevel. For some tools, a flat bevel is preferable. You can achieve this by sharpening against the flat side of your diamond grinding wheels.
Please note that sharpening on the side of the grinding wheel with the MB-102 Multi Base is recommended only with diamond grinding wheels. We don’t recommend it for sharpening with grindstones as they wear down and require truing, which isn’t possible on the side.
The MB-102 Multi Base has an adjustable joint which allows you to fix the sharpening position based on the optimal setting for each tool and jig. You can mount the MB-102 Multi Base in either the vertical or horizontal mounts on your machine, whichever works best for your tool, jig, or stance.
When mounting the MB-102 Multi Base horizontally on your Tormek machine, you can mount the universal support vertically in front of the machine. Basically, you convert the horizontal mounts on the machine to become vertical.
This provides better access for sharpening knives with the edge in the same direction as the rotation of the grinding wheel (edge trailing) and for guided honing using knife jigs. Many users prefer to sharpen edge trailing on the Japanese Waterstone, to make sure that the edge don’t catch the softer stone.
The MB-102 Multi Base can be used with most Tormek jigs. It is designed to work best with these jigs:

Set the exact sharpening angle for any type of knife
With the KS-123 Knife Angle Setter you set the exact sharpening angle for virtually any knife. In three easy steps, this patented and sophisticated solution lets you set the precise angle even on knives with tapered blades. It is self-adjusting for the diameter of the grinding wheel, and fits all Tormek machines with a universal support. The calculations to get the right angle is based on exact geometric measurements, so this analog angle setter is always correct. Setting the sharpening angle on your knife has never been easier and more precise!
Change the grit size on your grindstone
The SP-650 Stone Grader allows you to adjust the sharpening characteristics of your Original Grindstone or Blackstone Silicon. These grindstones have adjustable sharpening characteristics equivalent to between 220 and 1000 grit. The fine side of the stone grader provides finer sharpening characteristics, while the coarse side is used to maintain the grindstone and reactivate the grit for more effective and coarser sharpening.
