Lansky Standard Controlled Angle Sharpening System

Angle consistency is the most critical and the most elusive element of manual knife sharpening – and the Lansky Controlled-Angle Sharpening System ensures that your knife edge gets sharpened to the exact bevel you specify. Designed to give your blade a professional, razor sharp edge every time, regardless of your sharpening ability. Excellent for beginners and advanced users alike. The original and legendary Controlled-Angle System is the ultimate in Knife Sharpening technology.

The Lansky Controlled-Angle Sharpening System allows users to select the sharpening angles that are best suited for their knife's intended use. The four sharpening angles and their uses are listed below:

17° Angle - A severe angle recommended for razor blades, fillet knives or similar tools. An extremely sharp but delicate edge.

20° Angle - A commonly used angle for higher quality blades and provides an excellent edge for kitchen cutlery and slicing knives.

25° Angle - The recommended angle for most knives that need a durable, sharp edge. Ideal for hunting and outdoor knives.

30° Angle - An outstanding angle for knives that cut cardboard, rope or carpets. Best for heavy duty use.

 

Usage:

The knife clamp included in the sharpening system holds the knife steady, and holds the angle guide static and firm, so that the user can achieve the desired angle with every stroke of the sharpener.
