This honing guide makes the honing of chisels and plane irons fast, accurate and consistent. The body of the guide is manufactured from two precision-machined alloy die castings which are finished in a hard wearing epoxy powder paint and are connected by a threaded shaft and two steel rods. The guide has two clamping positions and can handle a wide range of blades from fine detail wood chisels through to wide smoothing plane irons. The lower clamp will hold blades from 3mm to 50mm and the upper clamp will hold blades from 35mm to 90mm.
