It looks like a knock-off of the Wolverine. I can't comment on this one specifically but I've been using the Wolverine for a couple of years and I'm very happy with it.

Can't help you, I don't use either.

I also have the wolverine jig and couldn't sharpen with out it. Highly recommended.

If you are so inclined (or as cheap as me!), you could take a stab at building your own, too

If you decide on the Wolverine be sure to go to the Oneway site and click the media button. There you will find videos and instructions on all Oneway products. The instructions in the box leave a lot to be desired particularly if you have never seen one before.

Looking at the Wolverine one.

I don't use one either, If I felt I had a need for one I would build my own.
That being said, I realize many woould rather spend time using tools than building them and that's O.K. too.
The Wolverine has been around for a while, I don't know if it was the original using this desig.
I do know that Wolverine also makes various attachments that allow the user to sharpen many different types of chisels.
Before orfering any of them I would check to see what different attachments are available in conjunction with the different tools I may want to use it on.

I use the Woodcut Tru-Grind sharpening jig which I have been very happy with and this system can be used to sharpen skews as well as gouges. It is available from csusa and would be worth a look at.
cheers

I purchased the one from Penn State. The flat tool rest post is shorter than I would have preffered, I have an 8" wheel on my grinder, it may work well on a 6" wheel. The construction feels pretty solid. Bottom line, my tools are sharp and for the money it was worth it.

Think will use the wolverine one as local and well Local.
Woodcraft a tad more $$ but with coupon and saving shipping about the same.

I have both available to me, and I prefer the Wolverine jig. It just feels more "beefy" than the PSI version.

I have the Wolverine and am very happy with it as well.

I purchased the system from Penn State. As another said, my tools are sharp, so it was worth it. I did have some issues fitting the jigs under my grinder wheels and still being at an adequate height, but I think it was more of an issue with my setup.

Bought the Wolverine today so.

Will see when I get it set up and going.

Thanks

Wolverine is great and it has a diamond dresser attachment.
