TORMEK T-4 Original Compact Water-Cooled Sharpening System

The Tormek T-4 Original is a high-quality, compact sharpening system—ideal for home users, hobbyists, or professionals working in tight spaces. With its comprehensive jig system, you can sharpen everything from knives and scissors to lawnmower blades and chisels, often making them sharper than their original factory edge. Its universal support ensures precise, repeatable results, and the leather honing wheel provides a razor-sharp finish.

World-class precision

Offering the same level of accuracy as larger Tormek models, the T-4 Original features a compact build. Key components like the motor and main shaft are mounted in the cast zinc top along with integrated patented universal support mounts. This design delivers exceptional stability and guidance for all jigs and accessories.

Compact yet versatile

Like other models in the Tormek range, the T-4 Original includes Tormek’s Original Grindstone. The primary difference between grindstones across models is size. The SG-200 Original Grindstone balances efficient material removal, smooth finishes, and extended lifespan. The included SP-650 Stone Grader allows you to easily change the grinding wheel surface from 220 to 1000 grit, offering multiple functions in a single stone.

Keeps every tool sharp

Perfect for sharpening chisels, knives, scissors, and smaller tools such as woodcarving instruments, the Tormek T-4 Original also works well for woodturning tools and drills. For planer blades and moulding knives, Tormek recommends one of their larger units. Note: Some woodturning gouges cannot be honed on the leather wheel using the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig due to the compact design—but they can still be honed freehand.
