The best just got better. The Tormek T-8 is the top of the line water-cooled sharpening system, and is by far  the best sharpening system we can find.

This package includes the T-8 Sharpening System, the Hand Tool, Woodturner's Kit, Planer Blade Attachment, 180° Rotational Base and Drill Bit Sharpening Attachment. The Tormek T-8 is our top of the line water-cooled sharpening system, and is by far the best sharpening system one can buy. If you use tools that need a finely honed, razor-sharp edge, this machine will give you a lifetime of excellent service, and ensure your tools have an edge that allows you to effortlessly work your magic. It sharpens all manner of tools – knives, scissors, wood chisels, plane irons, spoke shaves, carving tools, lathe turning tools, Axes, and much more. If it has an edge, the Tormek T-8 will sharpen it.

The Tormek Grindstone is constructed so that with the Stone Grader it can be treated to change its property from 220 grit to 1,000 grit. This has obvious advantages. You can make both the first fast grinding and the sharpening on the same grindstone and the same grinding machine and with the same jig setting. After grinding, the 8-5/8" diameter x 1-7/32" genuine leather honing wheel gently removes the burr and hones the edge to razor sharpness.

The optimal point and clearance angles can be set according to each drilling requirement, which depends upon the drill size and material. Completely restore worn drills as well as broken drills to a perfect shape. Finally, the rotating base which enables you to easily rotate the machine 180 degrees and lock it with complete stability.
