TORMEK Wide Centering Jig for Knives - KJ-140

This perfectly balanced, patented device enables the stable sharpening of knives with long, flexible blades, such as filleting knives. With the KJ-140 Width Centering Device for knives, you can achieve a symmetrical sharpening angle on both sides of the blade. The blade is centered in the device regardless of its thickness and geometry, and you get the same result on both cutting edges of the knife. The longer clamp stabilizes flexible blades and prevents them from bending. This ensures the same angle and pressure across the entire cutting edge.

Why the wide centering device for knives KJ-140?

• Centers long, flexible blades in the device to achieve maximum symmetry and thus the optimal result.
• The 140 mm wide clamp stabilizes flexible blades.
• Centers and fixes tapered blades.
• Additional stop for wide knives, such as kitchen axes.
• By moving between the two stops, a slightly convex cutting edge can be formed.
• Robust construction: clamps made of cast zinc, stops made of composite material.
• Perfectly balanced: Most of the weight is distributed across the clamps, which enables a particularly well-balanced grinding process.
• Glides along the universal support with little friction and therefore very smoothly.
• Can be used with Tormek T-4 and Tormek T-8 as well as older models.

Symmetrical grinding through effective centering

When you place a knife into the KJ-140 Width Centering Device, the knife is automatically centered in the device, regardless of its thickness and geometry. This ensures effective centering of all knife thicknesses up to 10 mm. This also centers blades that become thinner from the spine to the cutting edge. This ensures that both cutting edges of the knife are sharpened symmetrically. Simple adjustment, flawless results.

Wider clamp for more stability

The KJ-140 width centering device for knives works in the same way as the KJ-45 knife centering device, but with a wider clamp. The larger clamp width of 140 mm stabilizes thin blades and, thanks to the more secure grip, allows for a consistent cutting edge along the entire length of the blade. Of course, it's equally suitable for larger knives with stiffer blades, such as chef's knives.

Please note that the KJ-140 width centering device for knives is not compatible with the SVM-00 holder for small knives can be combined – in this case the KJ-45 Centering device for knives to use.

Freely movable, reliable hold

Because the KJ-140 Width Centering Device for knives rests freely on the universal support with its stop, you can follow the knife shape while still relying on the reliable support provided by the universal support. This allows a wide variety of shapes, such as filleting, butcher, and classic chef's knives, to be sharpened to perfection.
