Three new templates are ready for the sharpener. All three are in the configuration of the patented Uniform-Parallel Point™ shape.
I have provided paypal buttons here on the forum for them.

If you would like to order more than just the above templates (gravers, other templates, or etc..) use the order form page (http://www.handgravers.com/order-form.htm) on the HandGravers.com site. These three templates aren't on the order form yet but you may type them in at the bottom of the page on the order form, along with whatever else you would like on the order form by checking the items off.

Sharpener length gauge distances and resulting face/heel angles
The length gauge that comes with the sharpening fixture is 1-¼ long. It will produce a 45 degree face, 16.3 degree high heel. If you instead lock the graver in so it is protruding 1-5/8” it will make a 41 degree face with a 14 degree high heel. Setting the length to 7/8” will produce a 50 degree face with a 19.5 degree high heel. The measurement is from the shoulder on the sharpener. Check where the shipped length gauge measures from. That is the shoulder to measure from.
1.625" = 41 face, 14.0 high heel
1.250" = 45 face, 16.3 high heel
0.875" = 50 face, 19.5 high heel
