Hello friends. I apologize if this issue has been covered in the past.

The issue is, I can’t seem to be able to clamp knives with bevel that are gradually decreasing the thickness from the spine. In another word, the spine is the thickest part, and then the thickness decreases as you move towards the edge. As a result, I can’t keep the blades clamped at all.

Any suggestions?

Phil, I know and I appriciate it.

I have few knives with Asymmetrical edge, the blade edge down the left side is flat ground (around 9-11 deg.)and the right side is convex ground (around 40-45 deg.).

Both of these extreme angle ranges are not available with the current WEP offerings. I might be able to get the larger angle with a longer base rod (Clay is checking on it) but the low angles needs some magic from Clay. Hopefully his adapter or some solution will be ready soon....

Hi Phil, I did upgrade to the new arms and riser but I need the angle to go even lower. Clay has been working on something extra to do just that.

Bump.......

Yep, call them and they will send you a set of 3 screws of different sizes. I called them for the exact reason.

Great customer service!!!

$120.00 + shipping is the cost without the digital angle cube. I cant remember the cost with the cube. I had bought mine already before ordering the upgrade.

Call the customer service. They can take the order over the phone.

Got it.
Great idea!!

For a sec, I thought I ordered the wrong upgrade.

Built in angle cube??? I didn't think so. I believe it is a separate device. Correct me if I'm wrong please.

I received mine yesterday as well. No issues with mine.

Bump for an update.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY, REALLY need to get 10° angle for some of my favorite blades. Clay, please don't forget about this.
