Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker Sharpening System

A well designed versatile sharpening kit that's super easy to use and compact to store. The Sharpmaker was Spyderco's first product, which Spyderco made and sold before getting into the knife business. The Tri-Angle Sharpmaker 204MF includes two sets of triangular porcelain high alumina ceramic stones, a pair of brown medium-grit stones for aggressive sharpening and a set of white fine stones for professional grade finishing. The stones are triangular for sharpening plain edges on the flat sides and SpyderEdge serrations on the corners. A furrow running the length of each stone lets you sharpen pointed items like fishhooks, darts and awls. Use stones dry, without oil, water or lubricants.

All components snap into the self-contained ABS plastic base and lid ready to travel with you. Die-cut into the base are keyed slots and holes fitted for the stones. They accurately set the stone's sharpening angle at a 30 Degree (15 Degree each side) or 40 Degree (20 Degree each side) for knives and a 12.5 Degree scissor setting. Turn the base over, a channel lets you lay two stones side-by-side (flat-side up) for use as a benchstone. The lid snaps halfway over the base creating a handhold for stability while you're sharpening. Ceramic stones, like glass, will break if dropped handle carefully. To clean, scrub stones with a plastic scouring pad and powered abrasive cleaner, let air-dry. Also autoclave safe.
