TALON vs. PROGRAM
The TALON platform uses 32 fixed indexed angle settings in 2-degree increments 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 rail mount version is designed for OneWay and similar rail sharpening systems. If your sharpening setup does not use a rail system and you want to mount the platform directly to your workbench or grinder base, choose the bench mount version instead.
Compatibility
The TALON Rail Mount Sharpening Platform is designed for OneWay-style rail systems used with bench grinders. Confirm your rail setup, grinder layout, and mounting position before ordering.
