Lie-Nielsen Honing Guide

Our version of the side clamping style of 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. We have designed these jaws for our blades and chisels, not other makers'.

The Honing Guide comes with the standard pair of jaws that fit most of our blades.

The Standard Jaws (included with the Honing Guide) fit most of our plane blades, as well as our 1/4" to 3/4" Bevel Edge Chisels.

The Chisel Jaws fit our 1/8" and 3/16" Bevel Edge Chisels (as well as our 1/4" to 3/4" Bevel Edge Chisels).
