Had to sharpen blades of a mulcher, and wanted a reliable angle, so pulled out the Veritas Honing Guide.

Every time I get this unit out of its storage, I am impressed with how comfortable it feels, how securely it hold the blade, the easy alignment and ease of setting the desired angle.

And then the ease with which it allows the roller and blade to move across your chosen sharpening medium (in my case wet and dry sandpaper on float glass)

I am extremely happy with the money I spent purchasing it some years ago now.
