Are your axes dulling fast, slipping in the cut, or losing their shape no matter how carefully you sharpen them?
What if you could restore a clean, predictable bevel on any axe you own without guesswork, uneven angles, or removing more steel than necessary?
Meet the Tormek AX-40 Axe Jig, your new partner in controlled, water-cooled sharpening that works on carving axes, carpenters axes, hatchets, and more.
With its secure composite jaws and guided stops, you get stable support and repeatable bevels that stay consistent from one sharpening to the next.
When your axe holds a clean edge, chopping feels smoother, safer, and more accurate, and maintaining your tools becomes a simple part of your routine.
The AX-40 is a practical fit for woodworkers, carvers, outdoorsmen, and anyone who wants steady, predictable results across every axe they maintain.
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.
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.
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.
