Title: request for kenjig (knife setting tool) instructions
Post by: Ken S on August 28, 2018, 02:40:36 AM
Hi, all.

I received another request for the sheet I posted on the kenjig. In the past, valient members have found it. I thought Rich Colvin had included it in his Sharpening Handbook. No such luck.Finding it among my almost 5000 posts is like finding a common word in War and Peace. If someone can find it, I would be most grateful.

Ken,

It's on my site in the Jigs, Fixtures, & Modifications section.  Here's a direct link :

Thanks, CB and Rich. Rich, I thought it was in your very useful Sharpening Handbook. For some reason, I just seem to have difficulty finding it.

Ken,

Thanks for noting that it was hard to find.  I reorganized the Sharpening Handbook's front page to have "Jigs, Fixtures, and Modifications" higher on the page.  That section is where I've cataloged all the great ideas that I've seen.  (You may have to refresh your page or clear your history to see it.)

Kind regards,
Rich

Rich,

Well done reorganization. Things are easy to find.

One suggestion: I would like to see The Janjig included, Jan's idea for combining the Distance notch for the leather honing wheel with the kenjig (making it double ended).
