Product
The Tormek KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig is a patented, well-balanced sharpening device designed to provide extra stability for sharpening long, flexible knives—such as filleting knives—using Tormek bench grinders and sharpeners. Ideal for achieving professional, symmetrical sharpening results with minimal effort.
Specifications
- Wide 140 mm (5 1/2") clamp made from precision cast zinc and durable composite
- Centers blades up to 10 mm (7/16") thick, including tapered and flexible knives
- Provides a stable grip along the entire blade to maintain an even sharpening angle
- Compatible with Tormek T-4, T-8, and prior models; not suitable for small knives (use KJ-45 for those)
- 2-year warranty; designed for longevity under repeated use
Usage
Position the long or flexible knife blade in the jig, ensuring it is securely clamped. The self-centering mechanism automatically aligns the blade regardless of thickness or taper, allowing you to sharpen both sides at the same angle. Guide the jig on the universal support bar of your Tormek sharpener to achieve precise, symmetrical bevels every time.
