TALON vs. PROGRAM
The TALON platform uses 32 fixed indexed angle settings in 2-degree steps for fast repeatability. The PROGRAM platform is designed for turners who want custom-set sharpening angles, with up to 6 programmable angle stations that can be adjusted and locked in place.
Bench Mount vs. Rail Mount
This bench mount version attaches directly to your workbench or grinder base in front of the bench grinder. If your sharpening setup uses a OneWay-style rail system, choose the rail mount version instead.
Compatibility
The TALON Bench Mount Sharpening Platform is designed for bench grinder sharpening setups where the platform can be mounted directly in front of the grinding wheel. Confirm your grinder layout and mounting surface before ordering.
