Built in tilting stand

This grinder features a built-in tilting base as standard – able to quickly and easily move between vertical and horizontal operation, without the need to purchase an additional stand.

“Mareko” Deep Platen as Standard

The Mareko Deep Platen is a combination of a flat platen, 4” contact wheel, and slack belt attachment. It was designed by knifemaker Mareko Maumasi to provide maximum value and efficiency as it minimizes tool changes. The extra depth allows the user to work both sides of the platen without the tool arm interfering with the work.

Adjustable Tool Rest as Standard

The adjustable tool rest has been designed for maximum tilting in both directions as well as height adjustment. It is great for cutting false edges, bevels, clip points, octagonal handles, and fullers with our fullering tool. The tool rest is constructed of thick plate steel to ensure durability and stability. The three-handle design was chosen to eliminate accidental rotation typically observed with other adjustable tool rest designs, and also allow full adjustment without the need of tools.

DIY or Ready to Use?

We offer these grinders in kit form, or (as a special order) already painted and assembled from the factory, so you can choose which option you’d like. Happy to put it together yourself and safe some money, or want a one-off custom paint job? Buy the kit. Prefer to just bolt on the motor and get started? Special order the painted and assembled grinder instead!
