The set equipped with diamond plates is dedicated to sharpening knives made of hard, highly hardened steel, for example CPM-S30V or M390.

Operation of the system

In order to start sharpening the knife, we should start by securing the blade in the aluminum clamp, which prevents the knife from moving during edge sharpening. The clamp has holes, which we will later use to choose the appropriate sharpening angle. The clamp is double-sided and equipped with 4 holes (4 different angles) on each side, so there is no need to remove the knife to sharpen the other edge.

Once you have secured the knife in the jaws of the clamp with screws, you need to connect the guide with the appropriate grinding stone and choose the angle that best suits the type and purpose of the blade.

Adjusting the sharpening angle is extremely easy. All you need to do is place the guide in the pre-cut holes clamp, where each hole has an angle assigned to it (17°, 20°, 25° and 30°).

Sharpening angles

The clamp has 4 sharpening angles designed for different types of knives:

• 17° - filleting knives, kitchen knives, precision cutting tools,
• 20° - kitchen knives, pocket knives, small edc folders,
• 25° - large edc folders, hunting knives, outdoor knives,
• 30° - survival knives, heavy duty tools
