I'm a new carver and know nothing about sharpening but this works wonders for me and the whole deal was around $20,00.

I'd have to agree with Cliff, I have got a floppy and a hard wheel on a bench grinder. I purchased mine from gil drake and it works great, It just take a little practice to get it right. Its a Great system.
