Veritas Saw File Holder Jig For Sharpening

Veritas Saw File Holder Jig For Sharpening

This guide not only provides a secondary grip for your saw file, but also helps you control the file angle as you sharpen, using the eye's natural ability to judge parallel and level for more confident, accurate sharpening.

It has a rotating collar for setting a positive or negative rake angle up to 30°, and a 3" wide protractor to set the fleam (or bevel) angle up to 45° left or right. Keep the edge of the protractor parallel and level with the blade; it's easy to do by eye. Because the angle guide doesn’t limit the file's movement, you learn to control it manually and gain the experience needed for freehand sharpening.

The protractor is marked in 5° increments, and the collar has a vernier scale in 1° increments. A rubber O-ring inside the collar provides light resistance, making precision setting straightforward.

Measures 2 5/8" long overall, with an anodized aluminum body, a stainless-steel protractor, and brass thumbscrews for locking the rake and fleam angles, for durable, dependable use.

Made in Canada.

The saw file holder is also available in a set that includes six Bahco saw-sharpening files plus a file storage roll, saving you 27%.
