Sorby PE0B1C ProEdge Basic Sharpening System. A revolutionary abrasive belt sharpening system based on the same proven system that the Robert Sorby company has used for many, many years, to put the final factory edge on their tools. It's accuracy, efficiency, versatility, ease of use, durability, low maintenance requirements, and compact size, make it a perfect all woodworkers, regardless of shop size. With the proper settings and attachments, the range of tools that it will sharpen is impressive. Everything from turning tools, to chisels, carving tools, plane irons, knives, garden tools, and much more.
The system's cool running abrasive belts are a quick and inexpensive method of putting a keen edge on every tool while avoiding overheating. Tools are run through the belts in series by type and grit - Aluminum Oxide for bench and carving chisels, knives, and plane irons; Zirconium for High Speed Steel turning tools, drill bits, and router bits; Ceramic for heavy duty sharpening; and Trizact for superfine finishing of knives and other fine edge tools.
The ProEdge has integrated sharpening angle presets for quickly and accurately locating the most common sharpening angles required by woodworkers - 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 45, 60, 80 and 90 degrees - while still allowing for setting any angle in between. The presets assure that the same angle can be achieved consistently, without any complex set-up. Optional sharpening guides, honing wheels, and buffing mops may also be added to give the ProEdge even greater versatility. England
