36" Radius Platen (2" X 8")

This platen is intended for grinding a very shallow hollow grind on mainly chef knives (known as the “S” grind). The intent is to relieve the sides so that food sliced will not cling and also reduce the cutting surface for a smoother cut.

This 8” platen has two pairs of mounting holes, 5 1/4", 6", and 6 3/4" apart intended for Brodbeck and other grinders.
