Exactly what I needed to sharpen knives accurately. It holds knives tightly with no damage. The adjustable angle handle is a much-needed feature.

Welcome to the world of affordable precision with the WEN Sharpening Accessory Kit for 10-Inch Sharpening Systems (42704B). This kit is like the Swiss Army Knife of sharpening accessories, but without the price tag that makes you reconsider your life choices.First off, let's talk about what's in the box. You get a long knife jig, a short knife jig, an axe jig, and a scissors jig - basically, everything you need to turn your dull kitchen into an edge festival. And it's not just for show; these jigs are designed to work seamlessly with the WEN BG4270 10-Inch Two-Direction Water-Cooled Wet/Dry Sharpening System, but the universal design means they play nice with most 10-inch sharpeners out there. No need to buy into brand loyalty when your wallet is already crying.Installation? It's so easy, you could probably do it in your sleep - well, maybe not, but you get the idea. Switching from jig to jig is like changing channels on your TV; it's quick, and you don't need an engineering degree. The design is user-friendly, ensuring even if you're new to this sharpening gig, you won't feel like you're navigating through a maze.Now, let's get to the meat of the matter - performance. These jigs do what they're supposed to do: hold your tools at the right angle for that perfect edge. The long and short knife jigs are particularly handy for kitchen knives, providing a consistent angle that even a blindfolded chef could appreciate. The axe and scissors jigs might not be your everyday sharpening needs, but when you need them, they're there, ready to transform your rusty old tools into something that could shave the hair off a gnat.There are a few minor hiccups, like the screws on the knife holders can sometimes hit the wheel if you're not careful, but that's nothing a quick trip to the hardware store for some low-profile screws won't fix. It's like the kit gives you just enough challenge to feel like you're part of the process.Overall, for the price, this kit is a steal. You're getting quality, versatility, and ease of use without having to take out a loan. Whether you're a professional woodworker or just someone who likes sharp tools, the WEN 42704B kit breathes new life into your blades, making this one of the best budget-friendly additions to your sharpening setup. Remember, you don't need to spend a fortune to get a sharp edge, just the right tools - and this kit proves it.

I mistakenly mentioned this in my review for the WEN 10" sharpener but it actually belongs here.Good set of accessories for the money. I think a necessary product improvement is to add another thumb screw to the tool rest. It has a tendency to slip and you lose your sharpening angle. The manufacturer should give it two from the get go. It comes with one in the center so I just drilled and tapped two new holes on the ends and re-tapped the center one so I could use the same thumb screw on all three. It's solid as a rock now.

Devo dire che mi sto trovando molto bene e costano la metà delle più blasonate.L’unico inconveniente che si riscontra sta nella vite anteriore di tenuta lama in quanto avendo il pomolo di serraggio alto poggiandosi sulla guida e dando l’ inclinazione corretta va a toccare la ruota di affilatura.Il problema si risolve molto semplicemente sostenendo il pomolo con una vite dello stesso passo e lunghezza che si stringe con un cacciavite a croce mentre i pomoli posteriori li ho ricoperti con del nastro gommato per avere più aderenza nello stringere senza usare le pinze e devo dire che così sono perfette

These guides work well with one exception. The screws that tighten the knife etc protrude far enough to hit the wheel when sharpening. Only effective one side and can be easily replaced at a local hardware store with a low profile screw.

My knives have never been happier! Husband always took knives in for sharpening. More often than not, our quality knives lost their edge quickly.He decided to order this kit, yes it is a wee bit costly, but you get what you pay for. No more trips to sharpen knives since this arrived, the edge is even, and long lasting. It is a unique system, with an old-fashioned look and feel. And it works! We use our knives hard as we are foodies who butcher & cook from scratch.I always receive and appreciate his warning " be careful, the knives have been sharpened."

These sharpening accessories do the same job at a much lower cost than branded accessories for either Jet or Tormek. I would recommend them to a friend.

I recently purchased a Tormek T4 used and it came with the Tormek hand tools set. My wife basically only agreed to buy the sharpener if I sold the set (since I really only needed a chisel sharpener anyway) and I agreed. Decided to take a shot on this cheapo replica set before selling the Tormek set to compare and send back if super poor quality in comparison.I am not sending it back. The only tool I attempted to use was the knife sharpener but it worked fantastic. The micro adjustment on the handle isn't all that different and the knob didn't come close to touching the stone when sharpening a medium sized knife at 20°.Side by side with the Tormek counterpart, the weight was basically thr same across the board except for the regular knife jig, Tormek was noticeably heavier. But I actually like the larger knob on the Wen jigs, makes them easy to grab.
