A tool grinding machine for profile tools of machines for working wood, plastics material and the like, which includes: a machine stand, at least one headstock arranged on the machine stand and comprising a grinding spindle carrying a grinding wheel, a holding fixture provided for the profile tools to be ground and located opposite to a grinding area provided at a point of the rotational path of the grinding wheel mantle, a grinding rest movably mounted on the machine stand, a copying attachment including a template to be arranged on a holder and also including a tracer finger arranged on the machine stand, for engagement in the profiled template. The headstock is arranged on a swivel support which is adjustable about a swivel axis, which is at least nearly parallel to the grinding spindle and passes approximately through the grinding area of the grinding wheel. The swivel support is mounted on a rotary support arranged on the machine column so as to be adjustable about a pivot which is transverse to the common axial plane of the grinding spindle and the swivel axis. The holding fixture is mounted on a carrier which is pivotally mounted on the machine stand, while the template is located in a plane which passes through the grinding area and incorporates the edge of the profile tool to be ground. The grinding wheel is so mounted that it can be swivelled about an axis which is approximately vertical to the spindle axis and angular to the axis of rotation and passes through the grinding area.
