Lie-Nielsen Honing Guide

The Lie-Nielsen side clamping honing guide is solidly machined from stainless steel, with a bronze bearing. It features removable jaws: replacement jaws are available for chisels 3/16" and under, tall jaws for mortise chisels, long jaws for very short blades and angled jaws for skew blades. The jaws are designed for Lie-Nielsen blades and chisels, not other makers'. The honing guide comes with the standard pair of jaws.

Jaws:
The Standard Jaws (included with the Honing Guide) fit most Lie-Nielsen plane blades, as well as the 1/4" to 3/4" Bevel Edge Chisels.
The Chisel Jaws fit the Lie-Nielsen 1/8" and 3/16" Bevel Edge Chisels (as well as the 1/4" to 3/4" Bevel Edge Chisels).
The Mortise Chisel Jaws fit all Lie-Nielsen Mortise Chisels, as well as the 1" Bevel Edge Chisel.
The Long Jaws fit blades for all Lie-Nielsen spokeshaves and for the following Lie-Nielsen planes: No. 610, 10-1/4, 041, 042, 073, 1/2, and 85. These jaws are reversible. The short end hones a bevel up to 40° and the long end hones a bevel up to 30°.
The 18° Skewed Jaws fit the No. 140 Skew Block Plane (left or right hand). The blade for the left hand No. 140 fits with the left skewed jaws, and the blade for the right hand No. 140 fits with the right skewed jaws.
The 30° Skewed Jaws fit the No. 98/99 Side Rabbet Planes. The blade for the No. 98 fits the left skewed jaws, and the blade for the No. 99 fits the right skewed jaws.

The distance the blade projects from the front edge of the guide determines the honing angle:
20°: 2-1/16"
25°: 1-1/2"
30°: 1-5/32"
35°: 7/8"
40°: 5/8"
45°: 7/16"
50°: 5/16"
With the Mortise Chisel jaws, add 5°
