Tormek Wide Centering Knife Jig | KJ-140

Tormek Wide Centering Knife Jig | KJ-140.

The Tormek KJ-140 Wide Centering Knife Jig is a patented solution designed to deliver precise, symmetrical results on knives of varying thicknesses and geometries. Whether you are sharpening thin, flexible filleting knives or large chef’s knives, the jig ensures that the bevels are even on both sides. The self-centering mechanism adapts automatically to blades up to 10 mm (7/16”) thick, including tapered designs, guaranteeing consistent and accurate edges.

Its wider 140 mm (5 1/2”) clamp offers enhanced stability, preventing flexible blades from bending under pressure. This ensures the same grinding angle and pressure across the entire bevel. Additionally, the jig features a secondary stop for tall knives such as cleavers, and it allows controlled shaping of slightly convex edges by moving between the two stops. With its ergonomic design, well-balanced construction, and focus on stability, the KJ-140 makes knife sharpening both precise and comfortable.

Features & Benefits:

• Symmetrical Sharpening: Self-centering design ensures identical bevel angles on both sides of the blade.
• Wide Clamp for Stability: 140 mm (5 1/2”) clamp stabilises flexible knife blades to prevent flexing.
• Versatile Application: Centers long, flexible blades, tapered knives, and tall knives such as cleavers.
• Convex Edge Option: Shape a slightly convex edge by alternating between the two stops.
• Robust Build: Zinc-cast clamps and durable composite stops for long-lasting performance.
• Smooth Operation: Slides with low friction against the universal support for efficient sharpening.
• Well-Balanced Design: Most of the weight is focused on the clamps for a stable, controlled feel.
• Ergonomic Use: Flat thumb rest on the stop provides comfort during extended sharpening sessions.
• Compatibility: Works with Tormek T-4, T-8, and older models (not compatible with SVM-00 Small Knife Holder).
