Hi, I have the Veritas Sharpening system and use it. I need sighted help to set the honing guide for a specific angle. Were I organized I'd brialle the angles for each setting and then could do it myself. I have sharpened at least a couple chistles by guessing at the angle. But, with a new chissle I would want to set it at a particular angle to save time sharpening. Once the angle is set and the blade mounted in the honing guide the rest is just "back and forth" until you can shave your arm. I like the feature that allows you to set a micro bevel by rotating a knob without removing the blade. The results I have had using the guide are far superior to that I have achieved freehand. This is also true for my brother who is sighted. Ralph
