Lansky LKDMD Diamond Knife Sharpener Set

Lansky LKDMD is a professional sharpening system consisting of 4 diamond stones of different gradation, a clamp and guides, allowing you to select the appropriate angle and maintain full control over the sharpening process. Lansky sharpening systems are widely considered to be among the best and relatively cheapest professional sharpeners in the world. Based on many years of experience, Lansky has created an extremely simple and efficient system that allows you to select the sharpening angle depending on the type and purpose of the knife, and to perform grinding in a very precise manner while maintaining a constant angle. Unlike classic "hand-held sharpening" that requires skill and experience, the system allows you to maintain proper angle control, so you can be sure that you are sharpening correctly. The effect of such sharpening is easy to predict, the cutting edge is perfectly sharp and retains its working sharpness much longer. The diamond plate set is designed for sharpening knives made of hard, highly hardened steel, e.g.. CPM-S30V or M390. The ease of use, great efficiency and effectiveness of Lansa systems mean that our knives can always be "razor sharp" without having to purchase several different sharpeners. Construction and operation The system consists of a clamp, metal guides and grinding stones.. The aluminum T-shaped clamp is used to securely fasten the knife, preventing it from moving during grinding. After the knife is seated in the clamp jaws (with screws), we connect the guide with the grinding stone, then select the angle that best suits the type and purpose of the knife. The sharpening angle can be adjusted in a simple way - by placing the guide in the cutouts with factory-defined angles.:17°, 20°, 25° and 30°. The clamp has a double-sided design, so to sharpen the other side of the blade, simply turn the clamp and replace the guide with the stone, without having to disassemble the knife. Sharpening angles The clamp has 4 sharpening angles designed for different types of knives:

17° - filleting knives, kitchen knives, precision cutting tools, 20° - kitchen knives, pocket knives, small edc folders, 25° - large EDC folders, hunting and outdoor knives, 30° - survival knives, heavy-duty tools

Stones The Lansky LKDMD set includes 4 diamond stones that allow you to perform the main operations related to repairing, sharpening and smoothing the cutting edge. Steel plates with an evenly distributed diamond coating are mounted in polymer housings with different colors allowing for quick identification of each gradation. The diamond coating is harder than sintered carbide, which makes the sharpening process quite easy and quick, and does not require water or oil. To maximize the life of your diamond plates, do not press too hard on the blade when sharpening. We pre-clean the diamond plates with a nylon brush. (complete), then wash in warm water with a mild detergent. Stones included: Lansky Extra Coarse Diamond LDHXC 70 grit is used for repairing and reprofiling the cutting edge. Lansky Coarse Diamond LDHCR 120 grit is used for pre-sharpening and repairing a damaged cutting edge Lansky Medium Diamond LDHMD 280 grit is used to sharpen working edges and sharpen very dull cutting edges. Lansky Fine Diamond LDHFN 600 fine grit is perfect for smoothing the blade and quickly sharpening slightly dull edges. If you want to increase the stability and comfort of sharpening, it is also worth considering buying the LM010 vice, which is used to secure the system to a table or countertop. The set includes a nylon cleaning brush. Carrying the Lansky LKDMD kit components is easy thanks to the lockable polymer box.
