Edge Pro Sharpening System

The Old Guy · 08-25-2007, 15:04

Has anyone used the Edge Pro (http://www.edgeproinc.com/) sharpening system ? I am looking to buy a new set of stones and fell across this system. I like very sharp knives and this appears that it provides a very nice edge in a short period of time.

What do you think?

I've owned one for about 10 years (Apex model) and love it. It doesn't have much of learning curve and the owner answered all the questions I ever had.
I stepped up to this from a Lansky and it is more user friendly.

+1 - I bought the Apex model last winter, was amazed at how easy it was to learn & how nice of a edge it put on anything I threw at it.

That's a good looking rig from the images at the website. That type of sharpener can produce a very good edge if the abrasives are right for the blade steels.

Be extra EXTRA careful any time a sharp blade is held in a fixture. This is not based on theory.

Thank you Sir Bill, this has sealed the deal.

I'm looking at getting one of these myself.
