EDGE PRO APEX PRO KNIFE SHARPENING SYSTEM, Kit #3

Perfect for the Kitchen or workshop. Every sportsman needs one. Finally, the superior quality of hand sharpening is combined with the precision of a finely engineered machine. Tested and refined for years on over 100,000 knives.

The Edge Pro Apex Sharpening System is ideal for the serious knife enthusiast, professional chef or serious home cook who wants the benefits of manual sharpening with traditional whetstones, but with the control and convenience of a guided system with perfect and fully adjustable angle control. This allows you to manually set the angle on each and every knife in your collection, so you can set a super fine edge on your slicers and Japanese knives, and a stronger and more durable edge on your German knives and choppers. It gives you the benefits of sharpening stones, because it IS sharpening stones, but instead of a guide system moving over a stone, you simply pivot the stone over the knife, for better control (and safety). An excellent system, made from quality materials in Hood River, Oregon, USA, so the quality is superb -- no copy-cat junk here.

This is the "complete" kit (#3) from Edge Pro. This kit includes everything you need to create a first class edge on your knives, and to finish/maintain them. Great for someone with a diverse collection of knives.

Simply the best sharpener I’ve ever used. Worth every penny.

Great system

I researched this system allot and finally decided to go for it. I had the Lansky system before. The Edge Pro is quicker and more precise on the angles. It has great feedback as well. Except for the 120 grit stone which I feel does not cut as well as the 220. Be prepared to spend some time on large dull knives. I think at that Grit I will eventually go for the diamond stone. I tried free hand and even with experience I don’t think that I will ever come close to the Edge Pro.

I also added the magnet to my order and happy that I did. In my opinion the magnet should not be an option and should be part of the package.

Great Product - Works Well

Wasn't sure how this would work. Bought a few cheap knives from a second hand store to practice on before I moved onto my own knives. After doing two I was so impressed with the results that I moved onto my own knives. My knives were dull from the factory and had never been sharpened. I worked my way through the different stones from the 120 to the 1000 grit. Wow, my knives are sharp. Did the paper test and they cut through with out snagging. Told everyone to be careful with them as they were almost razor sharp. Did not take very many knives for me to get a handle on doing this. One thing I did do was buy a few small round magnets and attached one to the bottom with two sided tape to hold the knife it place. That made a big difference in my learning curve. It was almost like having a third hand helping me out. You can also buy the magnetic insert from Paul's. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase.

Effective, but expensive for what it is

Obviously these guys have done a lot of work over many years to refine this product. It works really well but takes practice and skill. I suspect the creators are now so good at using these systems they may have forgotten how tricky it can be to get used to holding a thin, flexible blade in place purely by hand, not with the dominant hand, etc. it’s tricky and takes practice. Don’t expect this to be a quick and easy way of getting sharp knives.

My biggest issue was the construction and quality relative to the price. We here in Canada get horribly gouged on price so obviously I ended up paying quite a lot more than those south of the border, but even taking this into account I think this costs WAY too much for what it is. I paid over $300 for this and it’s basically a piece of plastic with some rods attached and a few stones. For that much money I would expect it to be machined aluminum rather than injection moulded plastic from China.

Overall I wouldn’t recommend this product at this price.
