I am root. If you see me laughing, you‘d better have a backup! Registered Member #1489 Joined: Sat Nov 11 2006Location: Münster (Westphalia), Germany Posts: 1216 | Honestly I would go with Tigers product (Yeah guess! ... I have a sharperner system based on his principle  ).It is way more cumbersome to use, but has the adjustable angles, this makes it useful for honing a knive to a special purpose. The sharper (small angle) You hone a knive the more delicate will the sharp end be. So my kitchen knives are all honed on a 15° angle. But if You need a more sturdy blade, because it has to take more abuse I will hone with a wider angle like 22° or even 26° degree. This way the blade is not razorharp anymore, but keeps the sharpeness way longer, even if used to make tent pegs from wood and such. I you just want to keep Your kitchen blades sharp, the tool wedge posted is ok, since it is easy and fast to use. But if You have a couple of knives with different usages (kitchen, hiking, camping, fishing, hunting and the like) You might want to go with the more versatile tool Tiger posted, since it fits all Your needs (and kives)! Edit: forget about sharpening blocks, where You have to adjust the angle by hand unless You are very patient and have a very good eye-hand coordination. Usualy You just end up with an asymetric round edge, thats neither real sharp nor real sturdy, but has a marred and scratched blade. [ Edited Mon Sep 06 2010 ] | ||
