A faster, more consistent alternative to Robert Sorby's own clamp-and-bar knife jig — set the angle once and sharpen multiple knives with repeatable results.
Features:
- Sets up in seconds - no clamping or fiddling with a bar
- Locks in an accurate, consistent angle every time
- Once set, sharpen multiple knives back-to-back without resetting
Choice of 5 Angles:
- 15 degrees is most common on Japanese-style knives (very sharp edge, less edge durability)
- 17 degrees is a middle ground between Japanese and western-style knives (good durability, good sharpness)
- 20 degrees is most common on western-style knives (better edge durability, less sharp edge)
- 25 and 30 degrees are most common on hunting/outdoor knives
Two Versions Available:
Standard (60mm) - Ideal for larger knives as it has a wider base to support the knife
Narrow (42mm) - Ideal for smaller knives, when you want to get closer to the heel/bolster of the knife
What's Included:
1x Motam Woodworks knife jig (or set) for the Robert Sorby ProEdge
1x Plastic washer per jig

You will need to select the jig size depending on your knife plate height - please see attached pictures for details.
