It's amazing how securely this jig clamps a knife. The tensioning thumbscrew causes the jaws to close like a pair of scissors. The jaws are molded so that only the corners make contact. Amazing grip, really. I don't care for how easily the plastic handle/stop rotates. If you try to manipulate the knife with it, it turns so easily and changes the angle, since it screws up and down the shaft. Replace that with a piece of wood. End grain hardwood with an undersized hole and a relief cut down one side. It clamps very small blades poorly. Unfortunately, most of my blades are tiny carving tools, but I manage, just barely to avoid grinding the jig. This seriously needs some tempered steel inserts so that the jaws can be thinner than the weak zinc alloy allows, and thus approach the stone nearer, and at a lower angle. This is where my crummy homemade jig with thin steel jaws maintains its relevance.Read full review
