Save $100 compared with purchasing The T-8 and Classic Hand Tool Kit separately.
Bundle the T8 with the Hand Tool Kit
This bundle includes the Tormek T8 and the HTK-806 Classic Hand Tool Kit. Save compared with purchasing separately. This limited time special will end when we sell out of the Classic Hand Tool Kit.
The Tormek Hand Tool Kit is for just about anything that is broadly considered a hand tool. It includes jigs to sharpen knives, scissors, carving tools, and axes. This kit really extends the usefulness of the Tormek System.
Tormek Quality
The Tormek T8 sharpener has many imitators, but for those who understand the quality and versatility of this sharpener, there is no substitute. This sharpener has quality built into the design and a 8 year manufacturer's warranty shows the long-term commitment to quality. We are under no illusions that this is an inexpensive sharpener, owning a Tormek is a long-term commitment to sharp tools and knives.
The key word when sharpening the Tormek way is repeatability. The tools are guided in jigs and you remove only a minute fraction of the steel at each sharpening which makes it fast. An extra benefit is that your tools last longer. You can shape the tool exactly to your needs. Even such complicated shapes as fingernail turning gouges, spoon carving gouges and oval skew chisels with a radiused edge are easily sharpened. Once the shape is created, you can resharpen in less than a minute.
The water cooled slow speed grindstone is in harmony with the physical laws governing the steel tool -- the edge does not overheat and lose its hardness. You finish the sharpening process on the leather honing wheel, which lets you polish the edge to a razor sharpness. In addition, there is no grinding dust to pollute the air. The steel particles are deposited into the water trough. The Tormek method is safe. At the low speed, you can fully control the sharpening.
