Yep. It's the original.


No, the "cambered lower roller" is a roller that is not actually a
cylinder, but rather slightly tapered towards both ends. The idea is
to allow you to hone a slight radius to the blade.

Interesting. Neither the catalogue nor the Web site makes any mention of
that, that I can see.

It's not actually released yet. From what I've heard it's going to be
an optional accessory. The one that's on it currently is a cylinder,
but I think it's wider than the one on yours. This is good for grinding
flat, but not so good when trying to camber the blade.
