Taytools Float Glass Plates - 2 Piece Set 5/16 X 3-1/4 X 8-1/4 For Scary Sharp Sharpening

About This Product

Woodworkers and knife enthusiasts, if you haven't tried the Scary Sharp sharpening method yet, these float glass plates will completely change how you think about sharpening tools. The set includes two pieces of 5/16 inch thick float glass measuring 3-1/4 x 8-1/4 inches - the perfect size for most sharpening needs. What makes float glass special is that it's 'dead flat' - meaning it has no warp or variation that can mess up your sharpening angles. When you attach Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) lapping film to these plates, you create a sharpening surface that's more consistent and flat than most traditional sharpening stones. The method is brilliant - you start with coarse grit film and work your way up to super fine, achieving edges that are literally scary sharp (hence the name!). I've been using this system for my chisels, plane blades, and kitchen knives, and the results are consistently better than what I got with my oil stones. The glass never wears down or develops hollows like traditional stones, so your sharpening surface stays perfectly flat indefinitely. The cost savings are significant too - replacing lapping film sheets is much cheaper than buying new stones or having professional stones flattened. The two plates let you keep different grits ready to go, or use one for tools and one for knives. The learning curve is surprisingly short, and once you get the hang of it, you'll achieve edges that shave hair effortlessly. Whether you're a professional woodworker needing precise tools or a home cook wanting razor-sharp knives, this Scary Sharp system with these quality float glass plates delivers professional sharpening results without the professional equipment price tag. It's one of those techniques that seems almost too simple to work until you try it and realize it's actually more effective than many complicated sharpening systems!
