89 degree (or 1 degree) side bevel guide made by Ski Man.
- Made from precision anodized aluminum.
- Each guide is milled with a channel in the corner to allow filings to fall away from the base.
- Use spring clamp (sold separately) to hold file or stone.
Which edge tool? A multitool (side & base in one tool) or dedicated tools (one tool for each angle)?
- Multitools are more convenient and simple to use. They provide precise results even for the novice. This is a great choice for the beginners and the advanced model (SKU RB-3503) is a tool that will do everything a casual skier/boarder will need to do for a lifetime, and is a great choice for a family with skiers/boarders of different ages and sizes. A disadvantage is they can only use certain size stones (diamonds are not a problem, but a ceramic or Arkansas stone will not fit.
- Fixed angle bevel guides are devices that tend to be dedicated to one angle (though there are some models with shims that are more flexible). It's advantage is that it can use any stone of any size. You have a greater feel for the cutting process with dedicated tools.
