Lansky Sharpening Finishing System

Product detailed description

The Lansky Finishing Precision Knife Sharpening Kit is a technically advanced kit for achieving a precision edge with consistent quality in every use. The entire system utilizes the original Controlled-Angle design, which provides precise sharpening guidance at a fixed angle without depending on the user's manual dexterity. A basic blade clamp securely locks the blade and sharpener guide rod together, eliminating unintentional changes to the set angle while working.

The kit includes several finenesses of sharpening stones - from ultra-fine to hyper-fine - and ends with a leather polishing piece to finish the blade. The leather "stropping" finish returns the blade to its original factory sharpness and ensures a mirror-shiny edge without microscopic burrs. Each sharpening stone is mounted on a guide rail, allowing precise and controlled strokes in a constant direction.

The selected sharpening angles correspond to the specific application of the knife:
An angle of 17° produces an extremely sharp but delicate blade suitable for razor blades and filleting knives, for example.
The 20° angle provides exceptional sharpness for higher quality kitchen knives, ideal for precision slicing.
The 25° angle combines sharpness with long edge life, optimal for hunting or outdoor knives, for example.
The 30° angle offers a robust blade suitable for working with hard materials such as cardboard, rope or carpet.

All components are designed to be efficiently operated by beginners and advanced users. The Lansky system has been used for over 45 years and has proven itself in home workshops, kitchens and in the field thanks to its wide range of accessories. All parts of the set are optimised for working in the metric system; for example, the length of the guide rods is approximately 200 mm and the individual sharpening stones are around 125 × 25 mm, which guarantees comfortable handling and efficient contact with the blade throughout the sharpening process.
