Product Information

Full details

The Multi-Sharp ATT3001 is designed for woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts who require professional-grade sharpness for their chisels and plane blades without risking the loss of steel temper. By utilizing the power of your existing electric drill, this water-cooled sharpening system ensures a precise edge while preventing overheating. While it provides excellent results for a wide range of blades, users should note that it requires a steady hand and a compatible electric drill to operate effectively.

FAQs

Does this sharpener work with cordless drills?

Yes, the ATT3001 is compatible with both corded and cordless standard electric drills.

Can I sharpen wood turning tools with this?

Yes, the unit includes a tool rest specifically designed to support the maintenance of wood turning tools and gouges.

What is the maximum blade width I can sharpen?

The device has a capacity for blades between 10mm and 60mm in width.

How do I maintain the leather strop?

Keep the leather free of metal filings and grit. You can use a standard honing compound if you find the stropping action is losing its effectiveness.

Why is the water cooling so important?

Water cooling keeps the steel cool during the friction of sharpening, which prevents the metal from losing its temper or 'softening' due to heat.

Troubleshooting

Blade surface is becoming discolored or blue.

Ensure the water reservoir is adequately filled and that water is reaching the contact point between the blade and the stone.

Sharpening is taking a long time.

Check if the stone is glazed. You may need to clean the stone surface to expose fresh grit.

The drill connection feels loose.

Ensure the drill chuck is tightened securely onto the sharpener's drive shaft.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents steel overheating with water cooling
  • Compatible with standard electric drills
  • Wide range of sharpening angles
  • Supports multiple types of edge tools
  • Professional results even on damaged blades

Cons

  • Requires an electric drill for operation
  • Sharpening requires manual guidance and practice

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup begins by securing the sharpener to your workspace and attaching your electric drill to the drive shaft. Ensure the water reservoir is filled appropriately to keep the stone sufficiently hydrated during operation.

Compatibility: This unit works with any standard electric drill (corded or cordless). It is compatible with blades from 10mm to 60mm wide.

Care: After each use, empty and clean the water reservoir to prevent silt buildup. Periodically check the condition of the sharpening stone; if the surface becomes uneven, it may require dressing. Keep the leather strop clean and occasionally apply a small amount of stropping compound if necessary to maintain its efficacy.
