Description of Lansky Deluxe 5-Stone Sharpening System
Deluxe version of our Std System adds an Extra Coarse and an Ultra Fine honeSharpen all of your knives with ease with the Lansky Deluxe five-stone sharpening system. The system comes with five sharpening hones of different coarseness: an extra-coarse hone (70 grit), a coarse hone (120 grit), a medium hone (280 grit), a fine alumina oxide hone (600 grit), and an extra-fine ceramic hone (1,000 grit). As a result, you'll have the tools to sharpen virtually any type of kitchen, hobby, hunting, or garden knife. The system is easy to use, with a controlled-angle sharpening system built into the precision-engineered knife clamp. Simply secure the knife and choose your preferred angle and you'll receive a professional razor-sharp edge every time.
Each of the four angle options is suitable for a different knife type. The severe 17-degree angle is recommended for razor blades, X-Acto blades, scalpels, and similar tools, as it provides an extremely sharp but delicate edge. The 20-degree angle is commonly used for higher-quality blades, making it ideal for kitchen cutlery and filet knives. The 25-degree angle is recommended for knives that need a durable, sharp edge, such as hunting and outdoor knives. And the 30-degree angle is recommended for heavy-duty knives that commonly cut cardboard, wire, or carpets
Each honing stone is color-coded, with finger-grooved safety holders to keep your hand secure. The kit also comes with a guide rod for each honing stone, specially formulated honing oil, extra-long knife clamp screws, easy-to-follow multilingual instructions, and a custom molded storage/carrying case to hold all system components.
Sharpen all of your knives with ease with the Lansky Deluxe 5-Hone Sharpening System. Lansky has provided the latest and greatest in cutting edge knife sharpening technology since 1979. The Deluxe 5-Hone Sharpening System is essential to have around the house for sharpening all kinds of blades. The set comes with five sharpening hones of different coarseness and is suitable for any type of kitchen, hobby, hunting, or garden knives. The system comes complete with a knife clamp, honing oil, guide rods, knife clamp screws, a carrying case, and helpful instructions.
Sports reviews of Lansky Deluxe 5-Stone Sharpening System
Customer Review: Simplicity doesn't mean mediocrity
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I'd consider myself to be a novice when it comes to blades but I know enough to get by. When it came to sharpening free hand I'd tried and failed to get any of my blades back to factory sharp. However with the Lansky Deluxe Sharpening System I'm not only getting edges back to factory quality but in many cases I'm treading into the "scary" sharp waters. The system is great. Find the angle, pick the appropriate starting stone depending on level of neglect... I mean dullness, and work your way down from there. The C-Clamp helps a lot but you can get by just fine without it. Don't hesitate to pick this up. You wont be disappointed if you're willing to take the time to do it right.Customer Review: Sharp at last
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Pros: Very easy to use.
The 2 coarser stones re-establish the edge of old blades
The medium and fine stones making razor-sharp edges
The preset angles make sharpening thinner or thicker knives a snap.
Cons: The clamp knob can interfere with the lowest angle setting on small blades
I've used several sharpeners over the years. Most were good but none really restored a lost edge. That's why I purchased this set, and I wasn't disappointed. It easily restored edges of both kitchen and field knives. Just be careful not to cut yourself when you're done.
Customer Review: Great Knife Sharpener
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This sharpening system is great. As a knife collector/ user some of my knives get dull. I am not good at traditional means of sharpening, but this system makes it easy. As soon as I received this system I grabbed one of my cheaper dull knives, and put a wicked edge on it in a matter of minutes. The only thing that this kit didn't come with was a stone to sharpen serrated blades, but as most of my knives are straight edges, this kit will sharpen all but a few of my knives. I would definitely recommend this sharpening system to anyone who wants to keep their favorite blades in top condition.Customer Review: 30 years, still going strong.

My grandpa got this when it first came out (minus the extra coarse & extra fine stones) in '79 and he used it to sharpen his knives for the next 20 years, until he passed away, and I got it. Extremely simple to set up and to use. I loaned the set to a friend who sharpened his knife so much that he can now use it to shave!
I whole heartedly reccomend this to anybody who uses knives at all. I am an Eagle scout, and I have a collection of about 25 pocket knives that I use regularly, and only one of those stays sharp for a relatively long time.
Customer Review: Knife sharpening for the rest of us
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Love this tool. Saw it last year when hunting and bought one soon thereafter. It makes knife sharpening possible for the rest of us. If you've used a stone and turned an edge, you experienced the frustration. This holds the stone at the correct angle you need so you never dull your knives when sharpening. You always get a sharper knife using this product. Works great on knives below 6 inches long. Longer blades take more time and effort, moving the attachments. Wish they made a bigger one for big knives. Try this. You'll sharpen all your knives.
