Lansky Turn Box 4 Rod

Simple, easy to use and repeatable results. I have spent a fortune trying to save money with smaller hand held sharpeners, they have their place, but I wish I had bought this first.

I have struggled with a traditional sharpening stone for many years, to maintain the right angle/deal with the burr. This system helps with that enormously. The instructions are simple. It is also a nicely designed product which has visual appeal. Looking forward to spending some time on my cherished knives, I sat down yesterday evening in front of the TV, and in a disappointingly short period of time had put the best ever edges on all of a 5" sheffield sheath knife, a Buck 110 folding hunter, an Opinel, a Rough Rider folder and a 4" Winchester GP sheath knife. To get a finer angle you can put a pen under the wooden block & tilt it, (see youtube for video example) but I found the edges I got very acceptable. The fine rods allow for a lovely near shaving-sharp edge to be obtained. Using alternate strokes on each side of the knife sorts the burr out too. Highly recommended for practical knife owners who want a quick but high quality edge without taking too much steel off the knife.

An easy and quick way to sharpen your knives and once again great delivery speed.

it is a good sharpening system but the angles are a little to wide for me. I would have preferred they copy the angles of the syderco sharpmaker which would have made this a much cheaper yet equal alternative. As it is I might still have to fork out for the spydie one. Still a great starter or spare kit and it will get a nice edge on most knives. If you dont want to spend 60 quid then I highly recommend this one.

THIS IS THE FIRST KNIFE SHARPENING PRODUCT I HAVE USED STRAIGHT OUT THE BOX AND BEEN ABLE TO ACHIEVE RAZOR SHARP RESULTS WITH OUT ANY REAL TRIAL OR ERROR, AND TO HIGHLIGHT MY POINT EVEN FURTHER, I WAS WATCHING TV AT THE SAME TIME. THE LANSKY DOES EXACTLY THE SAME JOB AS THE SPYDERCO VERSION AT A FRACTION OF THE COST, DONT BE A SLAVE TO MARKETING HYPE, THE MONEY YOU SAVE COULD GO TOWARDS A SPYDERCO KNIFE! KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

Having bought one of those small pocket sharpening stones and had limited results I thought I would try one of these. Amazingly easy to use and my knives were razor sharp in no time. It is also small enough to take with you anywhere. Buy one now!

Bought the crock stick about two months ago, no other words to say about this sharpener but brilliant. Keeps all the kitchen knives sharp as well as my own collection....absolute pleasure to use. Still use my DC4 out in the field, and together with the Crock Stick it is all you need.

I have owned this sharpener for about 4 months now and found it to be a very good addition to my tool kit. It is possible to get a very sharp edge on a blade, almost razor sharp,there is no fear of loosing the angle on the edge of the blade if you keep the blade straight as possible as you pass it down the rods. The best sharpener I have used for the money.

I've always been too scared to try and sharpen knives, but this system is excellent, superb value and easy to use, my 20 year old Victorinox is at last sharper than when I bought it.
