Trend FastTrack MK2 Sharpener Kit, Consistent Edges for Chisels & Plane Irons, FTS/KIT/MK2B

I was very wary when ordering this product ( l have always used the old way of sharpening chisels with the stone and oil ) but found that the unit worked brilliantly without any problems. It was so simple to use, a little bit of a problem finding the correct angle, but once that was sorted it was straight forward. I was very pleased with the results, the sharpness achieved with the minimum amount of effort. Cleaning was very easy and very quick, far better than before with Cleaning the stone and the oil. Very happy with the new way of doing things !

I'm generally a cheapskate, so first I bought a cheap chisel sharpener from the middle aisle at either lidl or aldi, but this was more designed for sharpening a chisel owned by a painter, so I had to buy this to repair the damage I'd caused to my chisels, and it has done a superb job, and for the record, lidl and aldi do have some excellent tools!

Take your time with this item and I will have great sharp chisels

You see varying reviews of this device on th internet. As an amateur relatively new woodworker i've always struggled to get my chisels really sharp. This kit gives you all the abrasive grades you need to acheive a really good edge really quickly.this supports 4 of them and It's easy to find the right angle for your chisel or plane blade. Then just start at the rough end of abrasiveness and work towards fine, clean the burr on the convient deburrer and use the strop and you're sorted. I strongly recommend buying the lapping fluid to get the best results. I particularly like the bag that holds everything minus the fluid in one pace. I took a set of 5 new but not particularly sharp Irwin chisels and got them all razor sharp in a effortless 10 mins. Really poor blades at odd angles may take longer to get them right so use a grinder if needed.

A little awkward to use but does sharpen chisels to a good standard, certainly enough to make fine shavings

Looks like it's made well and it'll sharpen what I want it to , but it was missing the anti slip mat and as I'd bought two it was a double blow so I'm hoping "Trend " will send two anti slip mats as advertised to replace the ones they've not sent originally...here's hoping

Great addition to the van. Sharpen up your chisels on the go to ensure nice clean cut lines.My only gripe is that I can't seem to see what the different numbers (1 through to 4) on the tool mean but maybe I'm just an idiot

Absolutely brilliant. Wish I’d had it years ago. I actually enjoy sharpening my chisels etc now.
