When used properly, the HORL Diamond Standard does not need to be replaced. How to tell if the desired sharpening angle has been reached? Use the marker pen method to visually check the success of the grinding process. Carefully draw the felt tip of a marker pen along the entire knife edge, so that it simultaneously leaves ink on both sides. Do I need water when I sharpen knives with this sharpener? You do not need water to sharpen knives with the sharpener because no significant heat is generated due to the smooth rolling movements. The diamond coating is also designed just to be used dry. How long do I have to sharpen the blade before my knife is sharp? On average, it takes five minutes. The edge must first acquire the chosen 15° or 20° grinding angle. However, thanks to the constant grinding angle, only a few rolls back and forth are needed for subsequent resharpening. Do I grind my knife with 15° or 20° degrees? In principle, kitchen knives of any quality can be sharpened at 20°. However, depending on the condition of the blade and the quality of the steel, many knives can be sharpened to an even finer edge at 15°.
Product Features
The HORL2 sharpener has the flexibility to satisfy individual requirements in knife sharpening with interchangeable grinding discs and a Magnetic Angle Support with a 15° angle for a fine edge and a 20° angle for a robust blade.
The HORL2 sharpening system combines diamond and ceramic discs to sharpen knives of any hardness, including European kitchen knives, hard or soft steel, stainless and rust-resistant steels, and outdoor knives. The industrial diamonds used are the most durable and efficient abrasives.
Create a finely honed, razor-sharp edge on your knives with the extra fine 15° grinding angle, ideal for fine cutting work such as sushi, sashimi, Damascus knives, and particularly hard steels with a high carbon content.
Made of solid wood in a choice of walnut or oak, this sharpener is a stylish and practical addition to any kitchen tool kit.
Customer Reviews
Nothing will ever beat a good whetstone. The problem with whetstones, however, is that they take a lot of practice to be able to effectively use. Maintaining a proper angle is tough to do by feel.This system solves this problem, and it couldn't be easier to use.The unit is simple--it's just two parts: a magnetic angle block and a sharpening roller. Here's how they work.The angle block is cut for two angles,15 degrees and 20 degrees. Each have a silicone-padded magnet which will hold your blade in place without scratching it. The angle you need depends on the intended use of the knife: kitchen knives, fillet knives, or blades meant for fine cutting generally need the 15 degrees side of the block; outdoor knives, pocket knives, and blades which are meant for heavy-duty use generally need the 20 degrees side. Whichever side you use, the practice is the same--attach your blade cutting-side-up, make sure the edge is above the angle block, and you're ready to rock.Now comes the roller assembly. About the size of your average Yahtzee dice cup, each end has a different grit. For really dull knives or knives with an uneven edge, you'll want to use the course grit and spend time with it until your knife has a good consistent edge. No need to apply much pressure--just roll the sharpener along the edge and let the grinding pad do its thing. Once that's done, spin the sharpening roller around and polish your new edge. If your blade is only beveled on one side, that's the side you want to present to the roller's grinders. If the blade is beveled on both sides, you'll want to reverse the blade on your angle block and do them both.You're going to wind up with a very sharp knife.This unit has a very high-quality build. The rollers are smooth, and the grinding pads are consistent. Unlike using a grinding wheel, you're not going to generate enough heat to destroy the temper on your blade: your edge will hold as long as the quality of your blades will allow. The grinders are also replaceable, meaning there's no reason you won't get decades of good use out of this. Sure, it's a bit pricey--but this is an instance where you really do get what you pay for.Highly recommended!
