THE EDGE campSHARP knife sharpener
THE EDGE campSHARP knife sharpener
The Edge campSHARP is a versatile smooth and serrated knife sharpener designed for camping and outdoor fans that will work great as part of an EDC kit. Thanks to its orange and black color scheme, we can easily find the sharpener when it falls into the grass or locate it in our luggage.
This small sharpener is extremely functional, as it has up to 3 sharpening zones:
- a conical diamond rod used for sharpening serrated blades,
- v-type ceramic sharpener for quick sharpening and polishing of blades
- v-type tungsten carbide sharpener for restoring sharpness to severely dulled cutting edges
Diamond rod is a versatile sharpener with which we can sharpen knives with smooth and serrated cutting edge.
Sharpen the knife with a V-shaped whetstone is simple and does not require experience or special skills. All you need to do is pull the blade through the sharpening slot several times from the root to the end of the blade until satisfactory sharpness is achieved. Carbide picks up steel very strongly, so you should make sure not to press the blade too hard when sharpening. Light strokes using the weight of the tool itself are sufficient.
In addition to its main function of sharpening, the CampSHARP features two additional gadgets that can be very useful in life-threatening situations:
- mini compass for indicative direction
- emergency whistle used to call for help in case of an accident or getting lost in the mountains.
With a steel clip, it can be attached to a backpack, worn with a key ring or on a lanyard.

List of knife safety warnings based on requirements
Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on general product safety
(GPSR):
* Risk of injury: Use the knife carefully and always hold it by the handle. The blade is
very sharp and can cause serious cuts. Don't try to catch a falling
knife.
* Safe storage: the knife should be stored in a safe
place, out of reach of children and unauthorized persons. Use a blade guard if
is available.
* Use as intended: Do not use the knife for purposes for which it is not
intended, for example, for opening cans or loosening screws. This can lead to
knife damage or injury.
* Caution when cleaning: Use caution when cleaning the knife,
to avoid cuts. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents that can
damage the blade.
* Blade maintenance: Sharpen the blades regularly to keep them in good condition. Blunt
knives are more dangerous than sharp ones because they require more force, which
increases the risk of slipping.
* Transporting the knife: When transporting the knife, make sure the blade is secured,
for example, by using a vagina or sheath. This prevents accidental injuries.
* Keep your knife clean: Clean the knife regularly to remove any food debris
or other contaminants. This ensures safe and hygienic use.
* Do not modify the knife: Do not try to modify the knife or repair it yourself,
if you don't have the right skills. This can lead to damage to the knife
or injuries.
* Warning for children: knives are intended for adults only. Do not allow
children to use knives without supervision.
* Disposal: Dispose of used or damaged knives in a safe manner to
prevent accidental cuts.
This product is for adults only, who have knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can lead to serious injury. The blade of the knife is very sharp and can quickly cut through skin and tissues; so always be very careful when slicing and do not bring your hand close to the cutting edge. To avoid slipping of the knife, it is recommended to cut on a stable and non-slip surface and avoid excessive pressure, which can cause uncontrolled movement of the blade.
Be aware that leaving a knife on the edge of a table, countertop or in easy-to-reach places, especially for children, is a danger. The knife should always be properly secured after finishing work, preferably by putting it down on a stable surface or storing it in specially designed blocks, sheaths or on magnetic strips. Never use a knife for tasks for which it is not intended, such as opening cans or using it as a lever, as this risks both damage to the tool and dangerous accidents.
Blunt blades pose an increased risk of injury because they require more force and tend to slip off the material being cut. Therefore, care should be taken to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. It is also necessary to clean and dry the tool regularly to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. It is recommended to periodically inspect the condition of the handle and blade to detect any cracks, chipping or loosening. If damage is found, the knife should be immediately repaired or replaced with a new copy.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand, avoid talking on the phone or watching TV while slicing, and make sure your work area is well-lit. You are reminded that in some countries or regions there are laws restricting the possession and carrying of knives. Before buying or using a knife, it's a good idea to make sure that using it in your location is allowed under the current law.
Adherence to the above rules will enable safe and efficient use of the knife, minimizing the risk of accidents and ensuring the long life of the tool.
