Create your own Tormek T-8 water-cooled sharpening system

The Tormek T-8 Custom Grinding machine includes a stripped Tormek T-8 sharpening machine without grinding wheel or honing wheel. The box includes the basic Tormek accessories: [HB-10 Tormek Sharpening Handbook], [WM-200 AngleMaster] for measuring the bevel angle, and [US-105 Universal Support] for the jigs. The rest you decide for yourself by adding other accessories separately.

Choose your grinding wheel

Every tool is unique. Add the grinding wheel that suits your needs. Perhaps the versatile [SG-250 Original Grindstone] with adjustable sharpening properties equivalent to 220 to 1000 grit? Or one of the durable and extremely hard [diamond grinding wheels]? The [SB-250 Blackstone Silicon] special grindstone for quickly shaping and sharpening HSS steel? Or why not try the 4000 grit [SJ-250 Japanese Waterstone] for a mirror finish? The choice is yours!

Choose your honing wheel

A honing wheel is essential to remove the burr and achieve maximum sharpness. Your edge tool is polished to razor sharpness when you use the [LA-220 Leather Honing Wheel](https://tormek.com/en/products/honing-wheels/leather-honing-wheels/la-220-leather-honing-wheel) together with our honing compound. The [CW-220 Composite Honing Wheel] with integrated polish easily removes the burr without honing compound. Pick your favorite!

Tormek T-8 – A powerful and versatile sharpening system

The Tormek T-8 is a powerful and versatile water-cooled sharpening system. The machine has a maintenance-free industrial AC motor, designed to run the grinding wheel during continuous use. The powerful motor is tested for a 25,000 hour service life. The efficient system manages to maintain a constant speed, even under full load, thanks to its unique drive wheel. The motor and the characteristic Tormek drive system guarantee you many years of silent and reliable operation.
Smart features, such as the Tormek EzyLock nut, which enables tool-free locking and unlocking of the grinding wheel, and the advanced water trough equipped with a screw lift and magnetic scraper, complete the Tormek T-8 as the ultimate sharpening system for all kinds of edge tools.
Please note that a grinding wheel, honing wheel, and jigs are not included with the Tormek T-8 Custom. Buy them separately to complete your system.

See What Our Customers Say About Tormek Sharpeners

Really easy to use. Read the manual and away I went. I have sharpened everything so far. I have a bunch of water stones that I use but nothing ever comes out as sharp as using this Tormek. I have no buyer's remorse at all.

Scott E.

Tormek’s a quality tool. It is easy to set up and provides repeatable results. I use bevel chisels and was quickly able to set up & remove chips in damaged blades. I follow up sharpening on diamond stones & quickly hone the face & heel. I use this system to quickly repair damaged blades but rely on diamond stones for final sharpening.

Edward I.

The Tormek has been on my tool wishlist for a long time. Before, I managed to get my tools sharp but it was messy, time-consuming and often frustrating. My wife bought me the T-8 for Christmas and I love it. There is a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it you can get perfect, razor-sharp edges on everything.

Jeff

Very accurate machine. Puts better than average edge back on the tool with little trouble. The wet stone also gives me peace of mind in a wood shop.
