Lansky 4 Rod Turn-Box Crock Stick Knife Sharpener

The Turn Box family is a very stable and compact knife sharpening system. It works well in the kitchen and it quickly breaks down for storage in a drawer. The turn box family of knife sharpeners is also great for outdoorsmen on the go because it is lightweight and stores easily into a backpack. It only takes a few swipes to maintain an edge (a bit more if you have a really dull knife).

There are two pre-set knife sharpening angles in the wood block 20 degree and 25 degree.

25 Degrees – This is used for most kitchen knives and provides a sharp, durable edge.
20 Degrees – This is used for those desiring a very sharp edge.  Some examples would be for filet knives or cutting tomatoes.  Lower degrees result in sharper knives, but require more regular maintenance.

This 2-Stage Knife Sharpening System features a hardwood turnbox with internal rod storage in the base, and four 5″ long alumina ceramic rods.
