Why EM-15 Edge Marker?

- Cut tip for different thickness marking.
- Color the bevel of your tool to see where on the bevel your grinding wheel is in contact.
The Tormek marker method
The EM-15 Edge Marker is used in the Tormek method for repeating the existing bevel angle of a tool. This means you remove a minimal amount of steel each time you sharpen your tool. Watch the video further down on this page to get a step-by-step instruction.
This marker is alcohol-based and has a tip 1–4.6 mm (0.04–0.18") in size.
How to replicate your bevel angle with the EM-15 Edge Marker
This is how you use the marker to set your sharpening to replicate the existing bevel angle:
- Color the bevel, mount your tool in the jig and place it on the universal support with the bevel resting on the grinding wheel.
- Turn the grinding wheel forward with your hand and check where on the bevel the color is rubbed off.
- Raise or lower the universal support until the color disappears over the entire width of the bevel. The angle is now correct and it's time to start sharpening!
