Sharpen kitchen knives and scissors without guessing the angle
Tired of a dull blade that slips off tomatoes and scissors that tear instead of cut? Set the angle with the dial, run four stages, and cut cleanly again tonight.
Four Stages, One Simple Dial

Set the Angle with a Dial
Push the dial to turn it and the printed 16, 20 and 22 degree markings tell you where it sits. Match the setting to your knife type, then keep the same setting every session. The next edge comes out the same as the last one.

Four Stages from Coarse to Fine
Coarse, crude and fine slots take a dull edge back to working sharpness, one stage at a time. The scissor slot handles kitchen shears on the same body. Start coarse on a badly dulled blade, then finish on fine for a cleaner cut.

Built for the Kitchen Counter
At 29 x 7.6 cm and 280 g, it fits beside the sink and sits steady on the counter. The ergonomic grip keeps your hand off the stones. No cord, no batteries, just a few passes whenever a blade starts to drag.
The Angles and Numbers That Matter
- 16°Asian kitchen knife angle
- 20°American and Euro kitchen angle
- 22°Hunting and tactical angle
- 280gCompact manual sharpener, easy to keep by the sink
Coarse to Fine in Four Passes
- 1Check your knife type
Look up whether the blade is Asian, American or European style, or a hunting knife. Pick the matching angle from the printed scale.
- 2Set the angle dial
Push the dial to turn it until the marking for your knife type lines up with the indicator. Keep this setting for the whole session.
- 3Run the coarse slot first
Draw the blade through the coarse slot with light, steady strokes. Start here only if the edge is badly dulled.
- 4Finish with crude and fine
Move to the crude slot, then the fine slot. Test the edge on a tomato or a sheet of paper. For scissors, use the scissor slot instead.

Dull edges cost more than a sharpener

The Slip at Dinner
A good chef knife starts dragging through a tomato and the skin gives way instead of splitting clean. Scissors do the same thing on a sheet of paper. You push harder, the blade slips, and the cut gets worse.

Guessing Makes It Worse
Freehand sharpening depends on a steady wrist and a sense of angle most home cooks never built. Tilt too far and you round the edge. Tilt too little and nothing changes. The blade loses metal and the knife still feels dull.

A Dial and Four Stages
The dial sets 16, 20 or 22 degrees, and the printed scale tells you which one to use. Run the blade through coarse, crude and fine, then pass the scissor slot. The tool does the angle work so your hand only has to keep steady strokes.

Questions and answers
Asian kitchen knives sit at 16°, American and European kitchen knives at 20°, and hunting and tactical knives at 22°. The angles are printed beside the dial, so you can set it before you start.
Yes. Japanese knives usually take the 16° setting and German knives the 20° setting. If you know your blade's factory angle, set the closest marking. The dial gives you a repeatable angle, which is the part most freehand sharpening gets wrong.
Yes. The scissor slot is built into the same body. Open the blades, pull them through the slot a few times, then test on paper. Scissors that tear usually cut cleanly again after one pass.
The body is ABS plastic, and the sharpening work happens in the tungsten steel, ceramic and emery stages. The body holds the stages and the dial in place. For a budget manual tool, it is built for weekly touch-ups at the counter, not for rebuilding a heavily chipped blade.
A quick pass every week or two keeps everyday knives and scissors ready for prep. Each touch-up takes minutes at the counter, which costs far less than a trip to a sharpening shop each time a blade starts to drag.
