Katz-Moses Universal Sharpening Jig

A bit fiddley, but works

I've tried just about every chisel sharpening jig out there, and this is by far the best. Took me a few minutes to figure out how to use it - watch the video! Recommended.

Great Jig, one major problem

I love this jig, it works better than any of my other sharpening jigs and it’s just the bees knees for chisels and most standard (and not standard) plane blades. The biggest issue with the jig is that it’s not made for people who have bevel up planes. I cannot use it to sharpen six of my plane blades because of this. No angles above 30 degrees means that my 38 and 50 degree bevel up plane blades need to be done free hand or on my Veritas sharpening jig. So if anyone is like me and had bevel up planes they love to use, you’re probably not well served by this jig for most of your plane blades, unfortunately.

well built

The roller gummed up and stopped rolling reliably. Disassembled, cleaned the gunk out, oiled and reassembled. Works great again. Was impressed by the design and manufacturing as I was taking apart.
