Manual Diamond Knife Sharpener with 15°/20° Angle
This is a manual diamond knife sharpener for kitchen knives and other smooth blades. The sharpener is designed like a roller sharpener with diamond-coated sharpening surfaces and a magnetic angle holder, allowing the knife to be positioned at a fixed angle during sharpening. It operates without electricity, making it a simple solution for those who want more controlled manual sharpening at home.
The product is available in two relevant variants: Model A and Model B. Model A has a brown/wood-look appearance, while Model B has a black appearance. Both sets are based on the same fundamental function with roller sharpener, angle holder, and sharpening surfaces in 400/1000 grit. This makes the set suitable for step-by-step sharpening, where 400 grit is used for coarser processing, and 1000 grit is used for finer finishing of the edge.

Overview
This diamond sharpener for knives is made for those who want to maintain and improve the edge on kitchen knives using a manual and controlled method. Instead of an electric sharpener, a rolling motion is used, where the sharpener is guided along the knife’s edge while the knife is held against the magnetic angle holder.
The angle holder has two relevant angles: 15° and 20°. The 15° side is suitable when a finer and sharper cutting angle is wanted, while the 20° side is more suitable for daily kitchen tasks where a more robust edge may be practical. The choice depends on the type of knife, usage pattern, and how fine or durable the edge is wanted.

400/1000 Grit for Step-by-Step Sharpening
The set is based on two sharpening stages. 400 grit is the coarser sharpening surface, which can be used when the knife’s edge has become dull and needs to be reshaped. It is useful for the first part of sharpening, where the edge needs more bite.
1000 grit is the finer sharpening surface, which is used after the coarser sharpening. It helps to smooth the edge and provide a more even finish. With regular maintenance, it is often sufficient to use the finer side if the knife is not very dull.
15° and 20° Magnetic Angle Holder
The included angle holder provides a fixed reference during sharpening. The magnetic function helps keep the knife positioned against the holder, making the angle easier to control. This is an important part of the product, as a consistent angle is crucial for a more even sharpening result.
The 15° angle is intended for a sharper and more precise edge. It may be useful for knives where fine cutting is prioritised. The 20° angle is more suitable for everyday use, where the edge can be a bit more robust. This can be practical for common kitchen tasks where the knife is used frequently.
Manual Roller Sharpener Without Electricity
The sharpener operates without electricity. You place the knife on the angle holder and guide the roller sharpener along the edge with smooth movements. The manual method provides good control over pressure, speed, and number of repetitions.
The roller wheels assist with a smooth motion during use. The product material also highlights silicone rings around the roller wheels, which contribute to a more stable grip against the surface during sharpening. This makes the sharpener easier to handle in everyday life.
For Small, Medium, and Large Blades
The product material shows use with various types of blades, including narrower knives, medium knives, and larger blades. This makes the set useful for many common kitchen knives, as long as the blade has a smooth edge and can be positioned correctly against the angle holder.
The experience may vary depending on the type of steel of the knife, the current condition of the edge, sharpening angle, pressure, and technique. Start with light pressure and repeat smooth movements to avoid unnecessary strain on the knife’s edge.
Model A and Model B
Model A and Model B sets differ primarily visually. Model A has a brown/wood-look appearance, while Model B is black. Both variants are useful if you want a compact manual knife sharpener with 400/1000 grit and 15°/20° angle reference.
The choice between Model A and Model B sets is therefore mainly about appearance and which variant best fits the kitchen or other equipment. Functionally, both sets are designed for the same type of manual sharpening.
Compact and Easy to Store
With dimensions of approximately 23 x 10 x 8 cm, the set is compact enough to be stored in a drawer, on a shelf, or alongside other kitchen equipment. The weight of approximately 0.57 kg gives a solid feel without making the set heavy to move.
The compact design also makes it practical to take to a summer house, camping kitchen, or other places where a simple solution for knife maintenance without electricity is wanted.
Usage and Maintenance
Always use the sharpener with caution, and keep fingers away from the knife’s edge during work. Knives should be placed securely against the angle holder, and sharpening should be performed with smooth, controlled movements. Avoid hard pressure, as too much pressure can result in an uneven outcome.
After use, the sharpener should be cleaned of metal dust and sharpening residues. The product information also recommends careful use and cleaning after each use to maintain good function. Store the set out of reach of children.
Practical Sharpening Set for Kitchen Knives
This manual sharpening set for knives is suitable for those who want a compact and controlled solution for maintaining kitchen knives. The combination of roller sharpener, diamond-coated sharpening surfaces, 400/1000 grit, and 15°/20° angle holder makes the set applicable for both coarser sharpening and finer finishing.
Suitable for those who want manual sharpening with a fixed angle reference and multiple sharpening stages in the same set.
