Perfect bevels every time.

This pro tool will give you nothing but consistent, repeatable results. Easily adjust & lock in your angle, and knock out perfectly matching bevels and plunge lines. 

This bevel jig is designed for use with a file guide, so there is no stopper bolt supporting the blade spine. If you're using this without a file guide, clamp the blade securely to the bevel jig with 2 G-clamps or similar. It is 150mm wide with two slots for the Carbide Faced File Guide (not included).

Features & Specs:

  • Solid stainless steel construction
  • Non-magnetic, steel dust will not stick to it
  • Low-friction plastic bottom liner for smooth operation
  • Stainless steel blade clamp for holding the tang to the jig
  • Angle is freely adjustable by hand using two thumb nuts

Suggested Process:

  • Clamp the profiled blade to be ground blade in the File Guide (not included, this assumes you already own one)
  • Insert the file guide in the slot in the bevel jig
    (taking care so the bolts stick in or out depending on what side of the grinder you are using. On a Shopmaster 2 x 48" for instance, the bolts have to stick in towards you when using the left side of the belt as on this side there is no room for them sticking out into the grinder)
  • Clamp the profiled blade to the bevel jig, using the included clamp, tighten the 2 bolts using the included Allen key. The bolts are to be on inside, towards you and placed on the tang side of the blade.
  • Adjust the blade in the file guide if necessary; cutting edge sticking 5mm above the top of the jig.
  • Make sure the blade is the first point to touch the belt from tip to file guide.
  • The blade tip has to either stick out past the bevel jig on the side or above the jig if grinding a very short blade, in order to not grind into the bevel jig itself.
  • Adjust the angle of the bevel jig by moving the two knurled thumb nuts until you have the required angle. This will require some trial and error based on your grinder setup and the thickness of the blade.
  • Start with an aggressive angle to break the corner and go towards the scribed center-line on the blade, or to the outer line of scribing two lines and grinding pre-heat treat
  • Adjust the angle of the bevel jig to progressively bring the grind line towards the spine, this is often faster than starting with a flat angle and having to chase the bevels side to side until they match. If starting with a low grind (bevel jig leaning forward towards the belt) and getting this even, you can adjust the angle back to bring the grind lines slowly down the blade.
  • After having ground one side of the blade, loosen the bolts of the bracket and turn the file guide around. Do not touch the file guide bolts, you want the blade in the exact same position within the file guide, just flipped around in the bevel jig.
  • Adjust the angle back up to a more aggressive forward-leaning angle to again break the corner and when you are comfortable with getting even grind lines, start adjusting the angle back up to lower the grind lines towards the spine.
