“We've all had that moment, when you realize you are down to your last blade late on a Thursday afternoon, you know you can't get a replacement over the weekend... You put the blade on and pray, and then immediately hit a nail. Your weekend of milling just got cut short.
I had many discussions with people who had played out this exact scenario and it is for that reason I purchased the combo of sharpener and tooth setter. I do not regret it and I would do it again without question.
Both tools are very simple to use and they are very effective. Having them on hand is peace of mind that I will never have a weekend of milling cut short because I don't have a sharp blade on hand, and that to me is worth every penny!”
“This is an upgrade from my last one and it works great. I would definitely recommend this sharpener and setter. Customer service at Norwood is excellent.”
“I was getting other people to sharpen my blades for over 15 years however they would retire or move and I'd be left searching again for someone to sharpen my blades. Norwood offered the ProBundle and I decided to purchase. The Sharpener is very easy to use, accommodates various hook angles and is fully automatic once you power it up. The blade setter is just as easy to use. The nice thing is that they are portable and can be located wherever the mill goes. I don't know why I didn't purchase this set sooner.”
“The setter requires constant watching of the set gauges or the set will not be even tooth to tooth. This is 2026. Where is the CBN wheel ? Oh yeah, I put one on the sharpener and now have sharpest teeth possible.”
“Bought the Pro Sharpener and Setter. After setting it up and discovering its adjustment requirements I’m off and sharpening my blade lot. About 200 blades backed up as I couldn’t find anyone to do them and or at a reasonable price. Bought an electrical converter so I didn’t have to use a battery. Set it up in the shop as I had things to do there. About every 25 minutes I’d install a new blade to sharpen. Was a major relief putting newly sharpened blades back in boxes. Sorta overloaded my boxes with about 35 blades. Two boxes of fresh blades ready for the fun part! How can a novice sharpen a blade so it cuts better than brand new??? But I did and am totally surprised I did all that work and got other things done as well. The setter is quick and I felt it working many times, metal strikes! I would set about a half dozen blades during one blade grind. The grinder is all automatic and you can hear every tooth, especially the metal strikes. No more sending blades out and I know every tooth is ready to go and am quite sure this new processing equipment will pay for itself in no time. Thanks again Norwood!”
