Oil Stones Honing Guides
The Veritas jointer blade sharpener is designed to restore blades
dulled from normal use, even if they contain minor nicks. It
clamps blades up to 200mm(8”) long (including hand-plane
blades) for sharpening on Wet & Dry abrasives. Just stick the
abrasive to a fl at surface (plate glass works well), adjust the
elevating screw until the bevel is fl at on the abrasive and use it as
you would any other honing guide. After basic sharpening, switch
to a fi ne abrasive and hone a fi ne micro-bevel. Two position stops
ensure that successive blades are honed identically.
Made in Canada, cast aluminum with brass and steel fi ttings.
Firstly let us congratulate Liberon, they have
developed their Lib Net wax cleaner into
an excellent honing oil. It is both light and
non-drying but has the added advantage of
cleaning the stone as it is being used. Oil stones,
clogged by years of use with any old oil can be revived by simply
switching to Liberon honing oil as the preferred choice. Full marks
to the team at Liberon!

Veritas Mk.II
Honing System
The main feature of the Veritas Mk.II is its blade registration system
squaring and setting the blade in one easy step. The Mk.II Guide
has three bevel angle range confi gurations: a high angle (25° to 54°
in seven increments), standard (15° to 40° in six increments), and
a third for back bevels. The registration jig slides onto the guide
body, centering and squaring the blade using an integral fence.
The clamping mechanism registers on the face of the blade and is
designed to accept fl at and tapered blades, as well as blades with
irregular geometry. The Mk.II features a three-position eccentric
roller allowing a micro-bevel to be honed quickly and accurately
after only a simple turn of a knob. The 50mm wide roller is stable for
even the narrowest of blades. The guide can easily accommodate
chisels or blades from 6 to 72mm wide and up to 13mm thick
including spokeshave blades. Sharpening stone not included.

This is an attachment specifi cally designed for use with the Veritas
Mk.II Honing Guide. When planing on large, fl at surfaces, it is often
desirable to hone a slight curve, or camber, into the edge of the
blade. The Veritas Camber Roller Assembly has a barrel-shaped
roller that allows limited rocking, whilst still maintaining an
accurate and consistent bevel angle. Simply replace the standard
roller assembly with the camber assembly and sharpen. The blade
is still set using the registration jig, and the camber roller includes
the standard eccentric system allowing micro-bevels to be honed.

of the standard 90° jig to set both skew and bevel angles, left and
right on chisel and plane blades. The jig’s aluminium base has the
angles laser etched from 10° to 45° in 5° increments plus 18°, 22°
and 28° marks. Bevel angle settings allow for 20°, 25°, 30° and 35°
bevels.

Always keep this angle reference close to hand when grinding or
sharpening to check your bevels are at the correct angle. Ours is
laser cut from 3mm thick stainless steel for guaranteed accuracy
and durability. Each notch has an engineer’s corner ensuring full
contact. The eight angles provided are: 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 45°,
50° and 70°, which should cover most eventualities.

Two special features turn this from a humble honing guide into a
deluxe model. Firstly, the roller assembly can be easily removed,
allowing the jig to be used in conjunction with a bench grinder
and, secondly the brass roller itself is 38mm(1.1/2”) long, so no
worries about it wearing a groove in your stone. On the upper
surface a series of lines enable the blade’s squareness to the
jig to be easily checked. We found a blade projection of about
38mm(1.1/2”) gave a good bevel angle.

setting bevel angles. The angle
is determined by the blade

Because of the diffi culty holding short
blades such as those found in most
spokeshaves, instrument makers’
planes, etc., sharpening
them has been diffi cult. The
Veritas small-blade holder solves
this effectively and safely by securing the blade using two powerful
rare-earth magnets embedded into anodised aluminum and an
adjustable stop block. In effect, it transforms your short blade into
something larger (38mm wide x 100mm long) that can be effectively
held for sharpening, either by hand or by mounting in a honing guide.

A good bevel gauge is truly handy for quickly checking the grind
angle of chisels, plane blades, turning tools, etc. A quick check
confi rms the angle last used for grinding or honing so that the edge
geometry can be maintained. The Veritas bevel gauge has seven
individual slots that will measure the most commonly used angles
from 15° to 45° in 5° increments. The pocket-sized disc is 62mm in
diameter with a central hole for hanging it on a nail. Made in USA.
