ProEdge is a revolutionary sharpening system introduced by Robert Sorby. In fact,
the concept is far from new as the ProEdge largely replicates the tool
sharpening system which has evolved in the Robert Sorby factory over many, many
years. Central to the ProEdge is an abrasive belt which
is a quick and efficient method of putting a keen edge on each and every tool.
The cool running belt avoids any overheating.
ProEdge Sharpening System
ProEdge is a revolutionary sharpening system introduced by
Robert Sorby. In fact, the concept is far from new as the
ProEdge largely replicates the tool sharpening system which has
evolved in the Robert Sorby factory over many, many years. This
compact system is now available to woodworkers whether operating
in a large workshop or small shed. Central to the ProEdge is an
abrasive belt which is a quick and efficient method of putting a
keen edge on each and every tool. The cool running belt avoids
any overheating. The ProEdge is ideal for those who need to
sharpen carving
tools, bench chisels, framing chisels, turning tools, plane
irons, router bits, garden tools and much more. Belts are the
only parts that need to be replaced and can be purchased at a
minimal cost.

Accurately Locate the Most Common Sharpening Angles
The system comes with an angle setter which allows the user to
accurately locate most of the common sharpening angles required
by woodworkers. However, the user can easily set his own angle
if he wishes to move away from any of these common pre-set
angles - 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 45, 60, 80 and 90 degrees.
The angle setter ensures that the same angle can be achieved
accurately time after time. There is no complex setting up
involved. In fact, the ProEdge can be used straight out of the
box.
ProEdge Sharpening System Included Accessories:
ProEdge Aluminium Oxide Belt
Perfect for high Carbon steel tools such as woodworking
and carving chisels. This common abrasive is designed
primarily to sharpen carbon steel bench chisels, carving
tools and plane irons but will also hone harder high
speed steel tools. The material longevity is at the
lower end of the abrasives scale we use on our belts,
but makes an excellent economical choice.
Includes: 1 ea. 120 Grit and 1 ea. 240
Grit
ProEdge Zirconium Belt
Ideal for High speed steel woodturning tools (HSS).
Designed for HSS tools, drill and router bits this
material provides good value. The 60 grit belt will
tackle the most damaged surface.
Includes: 1 ea. 60 Grit
