I have a Supergrind 2000. I am trying to sharpen a large meat cleaver, the type where the back of the blade is curved and has a hole. I have no problem getting the jig, SVM-140, parallel to the cutting edge of the cleaver. However, even with the Universal Support as high as possible and the SVM-140 as short as possible, the blade is too tall for the edge to contact the stone. I am sharpening toward the edge. Trying to freehand the cleaver on the Universal Support has proven to be impossible. The blade is so long that it tends to slip as you move it across the stone. I tried using the SVD-110 with the blade flat on the tool rest. This worked partially. I got a good uniform edge but I could not sharpen the inch or so of the blade closest to the handle. As you move the cleaver across the rest, the handle stops against the edge of the tool rest which is wider than the stone. I can correct the problem on one side by sliding the tool rest out on the universal support until the its edge is just past the inside edge of the stone. However, I cannot correct it on the other side because the upright bar of the Universal Support stops the tool rest from sliding far enough over. The only solution I can think of is buying another SVD-110 and cutting it down so that it is about 2 mm narrower on each side than the stone. Any ideas? 
TIA
