This protrusion stop is designed for Eclipse style honing guides.

Creating protrusion stops can present a complex task. Despite their seemingly straightforward nature, achieving precision requires meticulous measurements to correctly align the blade.

Our solution is a stop that places the honing guide in the perfect position every time.

All versions of the protrusion stop are made from a black, Carbon Fibre reinforced PLA plastic, printed in the workshop! Furthermore, it's conveniently compact and lightweight, finding a perfect place in your toolbox.

-

This protrusion stop will give you the options of setting your chisel or plane to 25 or 30 degrees.

Approximate Dimensions: 140mm x 120mm x 27mm (L x W x H)

-

Please Note:

All measurements for these protrusion stops have been taken directly from the manufacturers guidelines.

It’s perfectly normal for these angles to vary a few degrees here and there. Especially if the honing guide encourages the blade to be registered on the underside of the blade, such as the upper section on Eclipse Honing guides, and the Saker Honing guides, this will slightly alter the protrusion of different thickness blades.

On honing guides where the blade is registered on the top on the blade, either using a flat reference such as the Richard Kell guide, or using dovetailed jaws like the Lie Nielsen or Veritas, the thickness of the blade will not alter the protrusion and every blade should end up more or less the same angle.

But all that aside, what these protrusion stops promise is consistency. If your blade happens to be sharpened at 29° instead of 30°, which will make next to no difference in the performance of the blade. Every time you set it up using the protrusion stop, it will always be sharpened at that angle.

This increases the speed of your sharpening, it prevents you from grinding away unnecessary material, and overall it just makes the sharpening process easier.

Simple, precise, and above economical. An excellent product that gives repeatable results. I have severe arthritis so micro adjustments are extremely challenging. Pleasure to use.

A simple jig but it’s really effective

Yes it is a very simple jig but it’s really effective. The Veritas jig is a template you print out and attach to a piece of wood which works but I like that this jig is the right height for the sharpening guide. It makes it so much easier to correctly set the guide up and I found my sharpening results were far better with less effort. It would be fantastic if Lee Valley would pick this up in Canada

Love it

Love it. Makes putting a bevel on my plane blade and chisels near effortless. Though I know I could have made one with the guidance of one of matts videos, I wanted to support the business, as his channel has been the major stepping stone that has ignited my passion in woodworking. Easy to read, lightweight and compact, fits snugly into my toolbag.

This guide is so easy to just lay the chisel on it and lock it down in the guide and off you go.
