Water Makes A Big Difference!– Water is what distinguishes this sharpener from all the other pull through’s. And if you think otherwise, you’d be very mistaken. Allow me to explain.

The Minosharp Plus 3 has 3 sets of sharpeners - fine, medium and coarse. The ceramic wheels are larger and longer lasting, than the wheels on the original minosharp. I'm not sure of the edge angle but I'm guessing from looking around 20*. I'm keen to take them down to 15* though, do you know if the minosharp has a stone capable of a regrind?

Company and Product Info

There are 3 different kits, one containing a rough (240 grit) stone, one containing a medium (1000 grit) stone, and one containing a super fine (6000 grit) stone. Each kit contains a stone, a set of guide rails and a plastic holder which doubles as a storage box and a base to elevate the stone above a counter during sharpening. The storage box is ventilated so that the whetstone will dry if it is put into the box while still wet. My global knife G4 has been with me for 5 years now, and it has some chips damaged by cutting hard bones and having a crappy knife sharpener just doesn't do t he job for me anymore. It makes the process less aggressive– If you’ve ever seen someone use a ceramic water stone, you may have noticed how smooth and natural it looks. There is no resistance and the edge is slowly worked to perfection. Water plays a huge part in this as it reduces the friction and heat. It makes sharpening feel unforced! It washes away steel residue– Water cleans both the blade as well as the ceramic abrasive of any steel residue that results from sharpening. Cleaning the abrasive in particular ensures it remains clean at all times, and is not loaded with steel.
