The Tormek Edge Marker EM-15 is not just a marker but an integral part of the Tormek Marker Method for sharpening edge tools. Designed with a chisel tip, it conveniently colours the bevel, helping users replicate their tool's existing edge angle with precision. When you aim for consistency and minimal steel removal to maintain your tool’s shape, this marker is indispensable. Watch this YouTube video for a demonstration of the marker in action!
