Sharpen your axes
This jig has been discontinued and replaced by the AX-40 Axe Jig.
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!
Outdoor axes and carving axes usually have a curved edge, while cleavers and carpenter’s axes may have an almost straight edge. The axe is fixed to the rubber stop of the jig so you can easily follow the shape of the edge, regardless of whether it’s straight or rounded.
When dry grinding on a fast rotating bench grinder, there’s a risk of burning the edge and wrecking the axe. There’s no such risk with the Tormek sharpening system as it rotates at a low rpm and the water cools the edge continuously.
Choose the best sharpening angle for your axe. The edge angle for an all-round axe for sports and leisure use is bigger than for a carving axe. A splitting maul requires an even bigger edge angle.
Carving axes can be sharpened asymmetrically, with a larger bevel on the left-hand side (if you’re right-handed). That will make the axe cut more easily because the cutting force is closer to the direction of cutting.
The rotation of the grinding wheel pushes the axe up so that it’s fixed against the rubber stop of the jig and amplifies the force of your hand. This automatically applies just the right amount of pressure against the grinding wheel. And your edge won’t cut into the grinding wheel, either – this can easily happen when you’re sharpening freehand against the rotation direction.
