Work Sharp Tool Sharpener


Has anyone used a Work Sharp tool sharpener? Any recommendations - I'm looking at the WS 3000.
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Work Sharp Tool Sharpener


Let me start off by saying that I have not used one. I have been doing research for the past few weeks trying to find a sharpener to suit my needs. From the reviews I have been reading, it does a good job at sharpening chisels, and plane irons, but it cant do much else.

For me at that price, I think it is either better to just buy a good set of water stones, or to save up and buy a Jet, or Tormek sharpening system. Both of those allow you more freedom to sharpen more tools. I am looking at getting the waterstone set from rockler for $119. I cant post the link, cause I don't have enough posts.

Good luck.
