This is in the next club sale.

Figure around $65.00. I would be using it for chisel and plane blades. Is it worth the money?
Thanks

Looks nearly identical to my Woodcraft sharpener. Wrote-up a blurb about it here:

Thanks for the writeup. If I do get one where did you get your knife jig? Could use it also..
