The angle
The post holds the angle
The guide rod runs through a pivot on the upright post. Raise the pivot for a wider angle, lower it for a finer edge, then lock it. Every stroke after that follows the same line, from heel to tip, on every knife.

Description
Description
For those who want one exact angle on every knife. The knife is clamped by its spine. The stone sits in a holder on a guide rod, and the rod runs through a pivot on an upright post. Draw the stone along the edge and the angle stays the same on every stroke, from heel to tip.
The sharpener clamps to the edge of a table or worktop. Slide the pivot up or down the post to set the angle, then lock it. It takes a few minutes per blade, and the edge comes out the same every time.
What's in each pack: Sharpener only: the table clamp, the blade jaws, the upright post with its pivot, the guide rod and the stone holder. Choose it if you already have stones for this system. With four diamond stones: the same, plus four diamond stones from coarse to fine. Full kit with case: the sharpener, the four diamond stones and a hard storage case.
Good to know: it needs a little assembly. The clamp tightens from under the worktop edge, so the underside must be free. There is no degree scale on the post: to set an exact figure, use an angle finder. For plain-edged knives. More stones for this sharpener are sold separately.

How to use
How to use
1. Clamp the sharpener to the edge of a sturdy table or worktop and tighten the knob underneath.
2. Clean and dry the blade. Set its spine in the jaws, edge facing out, and tighten the two screws.
3. Slide the pivot up or down the post to set the angle, then lock the thumbscrew. A higher pivot gives a wider angle.
4. Fit the coarsest stone in the holder and pass the guide rod through the ring of the pivot.
5. Rest the stone on the edge. Draw it along the blade, from heel to tip, with light, even pressure.
6. Keep going until you feel a slight burr along the whole edge on the other side. Then turn the knife over in the jaws and sharpen the second side the same way.
7. Repeat with each finer stone, with lighter pressure.
8. Loosen the jaws, wipe the blade and rinse the stones. Let them dry before you put them away.
Keep your fingers on the stone holder and its handle, away from the edge. Leave the pivot locked between knives to keep the same angle.

How it works
Three steps, one angle
Clamp the knife, set the angle once, then let the guide rod hold it.
Clamp the knife
Set the spine in the jaws and tighten the two screws.
Set the angle
Slide the pivot up or down the post and lock the thumbscrew.
Draw the stone
Run the stone along the edge, from heel to tip, then on each finer grit.
Guided sharpening
One angle, every stroke
Freehand, the angle drifts a little with every stroke. Here the knife is clamped and the stone runs on a guide rod, so the angle stays exactly where you set it.
Three packs
What's in each pack
- Sharpener onlyClamp, jaws, post and pivot, guide rod and stone holder. For those who already have stones.
- With four diamond stonesThe sharpener and four diamond stones, coarse to fine.
- Full kit with caseThe sharpener, the four diamond stones and a hard storage case.
Who it is for
Precise, not quick
It suits those who want the same exact angle on every knife and are happy to spend a few minutes per blade. If you would rather have sharp knives in a moment, choose a rolling sharpener.
Who is it for?
For those who want one exact angle on every knife and do not mind taking a few minutes per blade. The tool holds the angle, so it asks less skill than a whetstone. It is slower than a rolling sharpener.
Which pack should I choose?
Sharpener only if you already have stones for this system. With four diamond stones to start straight away. The full kit adds a hard case to keep every part together.
How do I set the angle?
Slide the pivot up or down the post and lock the thumbscrew. There is no degree scale on the post, so to set a figure such as 15 or 20 degrees, check it with an angle finder.
Where does it clamp?
On the edge of a sturdy table or worktop. The screw tightens from below, so the underside of the edge must be free.
Does it need assembling?
Yes, a little. The post, the pivot, the guide rod and the stone holder come apart for storage and fit together by hand and with small screws.
What about delivery and returns?
Delivery is free in the UK and takes 7 to 10 working days. If you change your mind, you have 30 days to send it back unused, and it comes with a 2-year guarantee.
