KME Upgrades and Mods

[777 Edge]

For those interested in some KME upgrades, here are some of my latest upgrades and modifications for the KME sharpening system:


Stone Holders - Any 4 inch or 6 inch:

Clamps, clamps and more clamps. KakBritva, Hapstone and TSProf clamps on KME:

Wooden Base stabilizer system to remove wobble in your KME:

Fine tuning frame for micro angle adjustment, stone thickness compensator and sharpening rod parking hook:

Love the wobble-free upgrades. That was the biggest issue with the KME for me. Not so much that it wobbles while sharpening, because I always held it in hand while sharpening, but that it's impossible to measure a precise, consistent angle when the sharpening unit wobbles on the base.

Do the stone holders have metal plates on top for angle cubes?

Do the stone holders have metal plates on top for angle cubes?

No ferrous metal inside but I designed the top section perfectly flat and parallel with the stone, and the rear moveable stone clamp to act as a stopper so your angle cube won't slide off while being used. If you prefer having a metal plate, then there are some magnetic metal plates available for sale online that has a double sided tape backing and can be stuck onto the top of the stone holders.

BTW, at the top of the fine tuning frame that I designed, you'll see a small platform thats also used for zeroing your angle cube. Very handy.

I also have a LED floodlight system that can be used in combination with the fine tuning frame and a small articulating arm. To be released in the near future on Gritomatic.
