Tormek AX-40 Axe Jig

Get Precise, Repeatable Edges on Any Axe You Sharpen

The AX-40 is a practical fit for woodworkers, carvers, outdoorsmen, and anyone who wants steady, predictable results across every axe they maintain.

Versatile Sharpening for Every Axe Type

The AX-40 holds carving axes, carpenters axes, hatchets, broad axes, and outdoor axes with a secure, centered grip. Each jaw includes two stops that guide you between positions, making it easy to sharpen concave, flat, or convex bevels depending on what your work requires. Whether your axe has a long, flexible blade or a short, rigid head, the jig keeps it steady so you can maintain a clean and uniform edge.

Stable, Symmetrical, and Easy to Use

Heavy-duty composite jaws clamp firmly onto the axe head, preventing shifting during sharpening. The jig flips cleanly to the opposite bevel, helping you achieve a symmetrical edge with minimal setup. Rounded stops make it simple to follow both straight and curved edges, giving you consistent bevel control whether the axe is for carving detail or general outdoor work.

Flexible Positioning for Better Control

The AX-40 works with the Tormek T-8, T-4, and older machines and allows for sharpening in multiple positions. You can work edge trailing or edge leading, seated or standing, depending on what feels safest and most comfortable. The design gives you broad positioning freedom without sacrificing accuracy, helping you sharpen with confidence and maintain reliable results over time.
