Small-Blade Holder
05P32.03
The Veritas
®
Small-Blade Holder allows
you to effectively and safely sharpen
small blades, such as those found on
most spokeshaves, instrument makers
planes, etc. The blade issecurely held
in place by two powerful rare-earth
magnets and an adjustable stop block.
The small-blade holder transforms
your small blade into a much larger
one so it can be adequately held for
sharpening, either by hand or by
mounting in a honing guide. The
included spacer and long machine
screw allow it to be used with the
Veritas
®
Angle Jig (part of the Veritas
®
Sharpening System, 05M02.10).
Instructions

. Loosen the screw
securing the stop block. Slide the stop block forward until it contacts the
back edge of the blade and tighten the screw. Subsequent sharpening of the
same blade will not require this set-up; just locate the blade on the holder
and slide it back until it makes contact with the stop block.
