Sharpen with unbeatable precision

This model's fully cast machine housing integrates patented precision mounts for the Universal Support, providing unbeatable precision for the Tormek sharpening system. Combined with its advanced design, the Universal Support guides all grinding jigs and accessories, resulting in full control and maximum accuracy in sharpening.

The highest quality made in Sweden

The SG-250 Original Grindstone is included in the Tormek T-8 Original, providing adjustable sharpening properties ranging from 220 to 1000 grit. This highly efficient sharpening system is capable of sharpening all types of steel grades, including HSS. With a unique drive wheel and industrial AC motor, it ensures quiet and reliable operation for many years. Plus, the motor is designed for continuous use and boasts a 25,000 hour service life.

Water trough with screw lift and magnetic scraper

The Tormek T-8 Original boasts various intelligent capabilities that facilitate the sharpening process. One notable example is the screw lift in the attached water trough, allowing for effortless height adjustment. Additionally, the magnetic scraper also serves a dual purpose - attracting metallic debris while sharpening, and assisting in cleaning the trough after use. It also comes with a water chute, suitable for longer tools that may cause water to drip beyond the trough, such as chef's knives and planer blades.


EzyLock – quick and easy switching of grinding wheels

One of the notable features is the stainless-steel main shaft of the Tormek T-8 Original Sharpening System. Its EzyLock nut allows for quick and effortless locking and unlocking of the grinding wheel without needing any tools. This feature is especially useful when switching between Tormek's unique grindstones, such as the SB-250 Blackstone Silicon or SJ-250 Japanese Waterstone, or even our diamond grinding wheels.
Includes: SE-77 Square Edge Jig, WM-200 AngleMaster, PA-70 Honing Compound, HB-10 Handbook, Tormek DVD, SP-650 Stone Grader & TT-50 Truing Tool.

Game Changer!

Yes it’s a big ticket item, but a complete game changer if you want the sharpest edge possible. I love it. Limitless hugs to add on as you go. Saves so much time sharpening & honing. 5min & done. So for me it’s time saved sharpening & more carving time. Win win
Longevity of edge & less fatigue on hands & wrists. I have so many tools that benefit from using this system.
Love it.
Thanks Chris.
