Adding to their line of manual knife sharpeners, Edgeware™ introduces three new manual sharpening products this February at Ambiente in Frankfurt , Germany. Focused on consumer and professional sharpening needs, these sharpeners include a hand held knife and scissor sharpener as well as two different versions of longer sharpening rods for professional sharpening needs.
The Diamond Pro 2 Stage knife and scissor sharpener features coarse and fine sharpening slots. The Coarse slot includes preset diamond rods set at a 35 degrees combined angles to quickly sharpen European / American style straight edge knives. The fine slot’s triangular shaped ceramic stones sharpen at 37 degrees combined and are perfect for finishing the edge of the knife and for everyday honing. These triangular shaped ceramic stones are ideal for sharpening serrated knives. This versatile sharpener’s patented scissor sharpener works on both right and left handed scissors featuring floating ceramic rods.
The 30 cm Edgeware™ Oval Ceramic Sharpening rod is perfect for the professional chef looking to sharpen larger size knives. This fine grit, long ceramic rod provides the ideal abrasive for realigning the edge of the knife and for every day honing or maintenance of straight edge knives. The 30 cm Fine Diamond Sharpening Rod‘s fine abrasive diamond surface is ideal for sharpening larger sized, straight edge knives. Both of these rods feature comfortable soft touch handles, no slip end pieces and large hand guards for added protection when sharpening.
