Review: A great and affordable sliding T-bevel - If you're looking for a T-bevel of significantly higher quality than you can find in your local big-box home stores without breaking the bank, then this is the sliding bevel for you. It seems there are only a few options out there for high quality sliding bevels: taking your chances on an antique off of eBay, spending a lot on a high end bevel from some of the smaller manufacturers, or this bevel. This bevel is definitely function over form, but it that doesn't mean that is in anyway cheap. The body is made from aluminum and has good weight to it with straight edges that are parallel to each other. The same goes for the blade but it is made from steel, not aluminum. The locking mechanism is excellent is is the style that is out of the way on the end of the handle. Some of the cheaper models have a locking wing nut or other locking device that is located at the pivot. Having the lock at the pivot is easier for locking down with one hand, but it can get in the was when you flip the bevel over. The triangular end lock on this bevel is also better than the knurled end knob that you find on other models. This allows you to get a good amount of torque to lock it down. I usually gently tighten it with one hand when I am setting the angle, remove the bevel from the work and then give it another quarter turn or so to really lock it down. I've never had the blade move when I lock it down and I have marked pretty roughly using pencils and knives against the blade. Other people have mentioned that the shape of the triangle locking mechanism allows you to really lock it down by inserting the blade of a screwdriver through the triangle and using that as a lever to lock it. While this will definitely work, I've never seen the need when I've been using it. Maybe if you use the 10" size then that could be handy when you are marking far out from the body. It does come with a small amount of machine oil left on the blade, but it wipes off easily and also protects the blade from the elements in transit. Overall, this is an excellent sliding t-bevel and the only regret I have is not buying two of them as sometimes it's nice to have a couple of bevels to keep track of more than one angle. Review: Highly functional and refined - This is a very nice, refined, elegant design which does it's job perfectly. It is lightweight, accurate and locks in tightly to accurately transfer an angle. Because the blade locks from the end, either side can be laid flat allowing for the angle to be transferred using either side. My advice is to skip the brass and rosewood cheap, but pretty, versions and buy this lightweight, highly functional tool. ## Features - Made by Shinwa in Japan - Blade 8" (200 mm) long x 1" (25 mm) wide made from stainless steel with milled (not stamped) sides - Base is 5" (120 mm) long x 1" (25 mm) wide and 5/8" (15 mm) thick and made from anodized aluminum. - Locking screw is on the end of the base so that the tool can be flipped for use on either side ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0037XS27A | | Best Sellers Rank | #202,743 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #254 in Carpentry Squares | | Blade Color | Silver | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Material Type | Stainless Steel | | BladeLength | 8 Inches | | Brand Name | Shinwa | | Color | Silver | | Construction Type | Milled | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (425) | | Handle Material | Aluminum | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | Yes | | Item Length | 8 Inches | | Item Weight | 4.8 ounces | | Manufacturer | Shinwa | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Blade Edge:** Plain - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** Shinwa - **Color:** Silver - **Handle Material:** Aluminum ## Images ![Sliding T Bevel 8" Blade - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31QgKnHL9QL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great and affordable sliding T-bevel *by M***N on November 16, 2015* If you're looking for a T-bevel of significantly higher quality than you can find in your local big-box home stores without breaking the bank, then this is the sliding bevel for you.

I've used others over the years, most recently an Empire bought form HD. It has a large knurled nut on the pivot screw. No matter how much I crank on it the blade still moves when I don't want it to. This Shinwa locks up really tight with only moderate pressure on the wing nut. If I give it an extra half a turn I can hang a ten pound weight from the end of the blade and it won't move at all. Plenty tight enough to transfer angles to another work piece or to set up a saw blade. Extremely happy with this purchase. I had never heard of Shinwa before seeing this but I'm definitely looking at their other tools now. Quality product at a great price. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sliding T Bevel 8" Blade - Taytools Bevel Setting Gauge for Use with Sliding Bevel Gauge Size Stainless Steel 0-50 Degrees in 1/4 degrees Increments Center Finding Ruler Depth End Graduations - Sliding T Bevel 10" Blade --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/12112459-sliding-t-bevel-8-blade](https://www.desertcart.be/products/12112459-sliding-t-bevel-8-blade) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
