TO-T8
The Tormek T-8 Original is a powerful and versatile water cooled sharpening system that includes everything you need to take your sharpening to the next level. The advanced design and its user-friendly operation give you the best possible conditions for successful sharpening with top results. The Tormek T-8 Original is ideal for quality-conscious do-it-yourselfers as well as professionals.
The Tormek T-8 Original is equipped with the SG-250 Original Grindstone that has adjustable characteristics equivalent to 220 to 1000 grit and can sharpen all qualities of steel, including HSS steel. The industrial AC motor is maintenance-free and designed to drive the full-size grinding wheel during continuous use. The motor is tested for a 25,000 hour service life.
The water trough has a convenient screw lift to easily raise and lower the water trough. It also has a double function magnetic scraper: during sharpening, the magnet collects steel particles, and after sharpening, the scraper will make it easy to clean the water trough. For long tools that may drip water outside the water trough (like chef's knives and planer blades), you can easily fit the enclosed water chute onto the edge of the water trough.
Another worked-through detail is the stainless-steel main shaft with Tormek's unique EzyLock nut, which enables tool-free locking and unlocking of the grinding wheel.

Great product, superior customer service, thanks Jeremy. I’ve managed to restore all my chisels to beautiful working condition.
Tormek’s reputation is second to none. So I knew I would be happy with the product. My greatest surprise was the quality of Axeman’s service. They helped me chose what I needed and were 100% honest, not looking to increase the final invoice with stuff didn’t need. They said they’d ship the same day and they did. They also got back to me with an accessory they thought I’d appreciate and told me to order it and that they’d add it to my original order to waive the shipping fees if they could ship everything together. All on all, one of the best online experience I’ve ever had.
Excellent product excellent service !! Tks Axeman
