Accurate Knife Bevel Setting
The Bladesman directly measures the clearance between the guide rail and the platen (simple triangle), the most accurate and consistent way of setting knife bevels, eliminating numerous variables.
Made in Canada
Designed by Jeff Toycen, the Bladesman is made in small runs in Canada with a unique attention to detail and the needs of the production knife sharpener. Working with knifemakers and sharpeners over the last ten years he took what he was hearing, got busy, and the Bladesman was created.
Cool, Quiet and Powerful
Created specifically for knife sharpeners, the Bladesman's variable speed and 1 inch belt protect the blade from heat damage and produce accurate knife bevels for a very low cost-per-blade. We kept a keen eye on comfort, cycle time, accuracy and consumables.
