Keep your swivel knife cutting clean

A sharp swivel knife makes all the difference to your carving. It glides through the leather instead of dragging, and your cuts come out crisp and even. The tricky part is holding the blade at the same angle stroke after stroke. This jig takes the guesswork out of it.

Clamp your swivel knife into the wooden holder and tighten the wing nuts to lock it in place. The roller guide at the front runs along your sharpening stone or strop, so the blade holds the same angle the whole way through. The result is a straight, even bevel on both sides and a blade that stays sharp longer.

It suits beginners who are still getting the feel for sharpening, and anyone who carves regularly and wants a reliable, repeatable edge.

Please note: This listing is for the sharpening holder only. The swivel knife and blade shown in the photos are not included but can be viewed here.

FAQ

Does this come with a swivel knife?
No. This is the sharpening holder only. The swivel knife and blade in the photos are just to show how it works, but can be viewed here.

How do I use it?
Clamp your swivel knife into the holder and tighten the wing nuts. Then roll it back and forth along your stone or strop, letting the roller guide keep the angle steady.

Will it fit my swivel knife?
It’s designed to clamp a standard swivel knife barrel. If you’re unsure, send us a message with your knife’s details before you order.

How often should I sharpen my swivel knife?
Strop it regularly while you’re carving to keep the edge keen. Only go back to the stone when stropping no longer brings the edge back.
