Tormek KJ-140 Wide centering knife jig

This well-balanced, patented jig provides extra stability when sharpening knives with long, flexible blades such as fillet knives. With the KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig, you achieve symmetrical sharpening with the same angle on both sides of the blade. Whatever the thickness and geometry of the blade, it is centered in the jig and you get the same result on both grinding phases of the knife. The wider clamp stabilizes flexible blades to prevent them from bending, so you get the same angle and pressure throughout the entire sharpening phase.

Why the KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig?

  • Centers long, flexible blades in the jig for the best, symmetrical results.
  • 140 mm wide clamp stabilizes flexible knife blades.
  • Centers tapered knives and holds them firmly.
  • An additional 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-140 Wide 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 get a symmetrical grind on both grinding phases of the knife. Simple setup, perfect results.


Wider clamp - more stability

The KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig works in the same way as the KJ-45 Centering knife jig but has a wider clamp. The wider 140 mm clamp stabilizes a thin blade and provides more support for an even grinding phase along the entire blade. Of course, it can also be used with larger knives with a more stable blade, such as chef's knives. Please note that the KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig not work with SVM-00 Holder for small knives, but then use KJ-45 Centering knife jig.


Guided freedom

Since the KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig is laid with the stop free against the universal support, you have the possibility to follow the shapes of the knife, always guided by the universal support as a reference point. This allows you to sharpen knives with different blade shapes, fillet knives as well as butcher knives and classic chef's knives.

Well balanced and ergonomic

The design of the KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig also focuses on the user experience. For the best grinding experience, most of the jig's weight is focused on the clamps, the part closest to the actual grinding. 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.
