The HORL Premium sharpening set is for anyone who takes their knives seriously and doesn't want to lose half an hour every time. The hardest part of sharpening by hand is keeping the angle constant; drift a few degrees and you undo the edge you just set. In the HORL system the knife is held magnetically in place and you roll the sharpener along it, so that angle stays the same with every stroke.
What the HORL Premium sharpening set gets you
A knife that bites again. Not just sharp on paper, but sharp in use: clean through a tomato's skin, neat through a steak, no wrestling when portioning meat off the kamado. Because you work in steps from coarse to fine, you remove exactly as much steel as needed and no more.
- Fixed sharpening angle, so an even edge along the full length
- Working from coarse to fine: first set, then refine, then finish
- Suitable for kitchen knives and BBQ knives of common blade types
- No power needed, so you sharpen wherever you like
- Set weighing about 1 kilo, sturdy enough to last for years
How to approach a sharpening session
Start with the coarsest grit until you feel an edge along the full length. Then move a step finer and keep the number of strokes equal left and right. Finish with the finest step and remove the burr. A few minutes per knife is enough.
