Lansky 4-Stone Deluxe Diamond System | Precision Knife Sharpening Kit
Keep all your knives honed with a professional, razor sharp edge with the Lansky Controlled-Angle Sharpening System. The system comes with four sharpening hones of different coarseness: an extra-coarse diamond (70 grit), a coarse diamond (120 grit), a medium diamond (280 grit), and a fine diamond (600 grit). As a result, you'll have the tools to sharpen virtually any type of kitchen, hobby, or garden knife. Diamond kits are very aggressive, and are the sharpener of choice for quickly setting an edge or resetting the edge to a different angle. That's because diamonds remove steel much faster than their aluminum oxide counterparts.
The system is easy to use, with a controlled-angle sharpening system built into the precision-engineered knife clamp. Simply secure the knife, choose your preferred angle, and you'll receive a sharp edge every time. Each of the four angle options is suitable for a different knife type. The severe 17-degree angle is recommended for razor blades, X-Acto blades, scalpels, and similar tools, as it provides an extremely sharp but delicate edge. The 20-degree angle is commonly used for higher-quality blades, making it ideal for kitchen cutlery and filet knives. The 25-degree angle is recommended for knives that need a durable, sharp edge, such as hunting and outdoor knives. And the 30-degree angle is recommended for heavy-duty knives that commonly cut cardboard, wire, or carpets.
Each honing stone is color-coded, with finger-grooved safety holders to keep your hand secure. The kit also comes with a guide rod for each honing stone, specially formulated honing oil, extra-long knife clamp screws, easy-to-follow multilingual instructions, and a custom molded storage/carrying case to hold all system components.
