Lee Valley Wooden Sharpening Slips

(Set of 6)

About as straightforward as sharpening aids can be, these wooden slips can be charged with our honing compound or used with PSA-backed lapping films (both available separately) to sharpen concave gouge edges. They are supplied as a set of six profiles (from 1/8" to 3/4" radius in 1/8" increments) to match common gouge curvatures.

Made from hard maple, dried and sealed to ensure dimensional stability, each 6" slip can be reshaped to match a custom profile. A tang along the length of the slip lets you easily secure them within a 5/16" wide by 1/8" deep dado in a backer board, freeing both hands to hold and guide the tool during honing.

Fast, easy and effective. Made in USA.
