Tormek Centering Device for Knives

 
With the patented centering device for knives KJ-45 from Tormek, you achieve symmetrical cutting edges with the same angle on both sides, regardless of the thickness and geometry of the blade. Whether it's a conventional kitchen knife or a thicker, tapered hunting knife: look forward to the same excellent results on both cutting edges without having to adjust the device. The KJ-45 centering device for knives is suitable for household, cooking, craft, as well as hunting and fishing knives – practically for all knives that need sharpening. Even draw knives and garden shears are no problem.
Why the KJ-45 centering device for knives?

Centers the knife in the device to achieve maximum symmetry and thus an optimal result.
Centers and fixes tapered blades.
Additional stop for tall knives, such as kitchen cleavers.
By moving between the two stops, a slightly convex edge can be shaped.
Robust construction: clamps made of zinc die-cast, stops made of composite material.
Perfectly balanced: most of the weight is distributed on the clamps, allowing for a particularly well-balanced grinding process.
Glides with low friction and thus very smoothly along the universal support.
Usable with Tormek T-4 and Tormek T-8 as well as older models.

Symmetrical grinding through effective centering
When you clamp a knife in the KJ-45 centering device for knives, the knife is automatically centered in the device regardless of thickness and geometry. This ensures effective centering of all knife thicknesses up to a thickness of 10 mm. This also centers blades that taper from the spine to the edge. Thus, both cutting edges of the knife are ground symmetrically. Simple adjustment, flawless result.
Freely movable, reliable hold
Since the KJ-45 centering device for knives rests freely on the universal support with the stop, you can follow the shape of the knife while still relying on the reliable hold provided by the universal support. This allows for perfect grinding of various shapes, such as craft, butcher, and classic kitchen knives.
