Tormek KJ-45 Jig for knives

With Tormek's patented KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig, you achieve symmetrical sharpening phases with the same angle on both sides of the knife blade, regardless of blade thickness or geometry. Whether you're sharpening a regular kitchen knife or a thicker, tapered hunting knife, you get the same results on both sharpening phases of the knife without having to adjust the jig. The KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig is suitable for most types of knives, including household knives, chef's knives, woodworking knives, and hunting and fishing knives. It also works for carpenter's band knives and gardener's secateurs.

Why the KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig?

  • Centers the knife in the jig for best, symmetrical results.
  • Centers tapered knives and holds them steady.
  • An extra stop for tall knives, such as meat cleavers.
  • Ability to form a slightly convex edge with a movement between the two stops.
  • Robust construction - clamps cast in zinc and stops in durable composite.
  • Well-balanced - most of the weight is focused on the clamps, giving a more balanced feel to the sharpening.
  • Glides smoothly with low friction against the universal support.
  • Works with both Tormek T-4 and Tormek T-8, as well as older models.

Centering for symmetrical grinding

When you attach your knife to the KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig, the knife self-centers in the jig, regardless of thickness or geometry. This means that the jig centers everything from the thinnest knives to knives with a thickness of up to 10 mm. It also means that knife blades that taper from spine to edge and heel to tip are centered in the jig and receive a symmetrical sharpening on both sharpening phases of the knife. Simple setup, perfect results.


Guided freedom

Because the KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig is laid with the stop free against the universal support, you have the ability to follow the shape of the knife, always guided by the universal support as a reference point. This allows you to sharpen knives with different blade shapes, craft knives as well as butcher knives and classic chef's knives.


Fits the vast majority of knives

The KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig centers knife blades up to 10 mm thick. You can sharpen knives with blades down to 60 mm length and 12 mm height. For smaller knives, combine the knife jig with the SVM-00 Small Knife Holder which allows you to sharpen even your smallest knives. The KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig has an extra stop that makes it possible to sharpen really high knives, such as meat cleavers. In combination with the US-430 Extended Universal Support, you can sharpen even higher knives or tools.

For knives with long and curved blades, such as fillet knives, the KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig stabilizes the curved blade for symmetrical results as well.


Well-balanced and ergonomic

The design of the KJ-45 Centering Knife Jig also focuses on the user experience. For the best sharpening experience, most of the jig's weight is focused on the clamps, the part closest to the actual sharpening. This gives a very well-balanced feeling in use.

The end of the stop has been designed with your ergonomics in mind. There is a flat surface to place your thumb on to secure the jig to the universal support. This little touch makes longer periods of grinding more comfortable.
