The Blademedic Knife Sharpener is like having an entire sharpening kit right in your pocket, whether it's for a plain or serrated edge, gut hooks, and the like, the Blademedic has your knife's edge covered. This field repair sharpening kit includes four sharpeners to keep your knife sharp. The tungsten carbide slot is there to set an edge on an extremely dull blade in just 3-4 strokes. Ceramic sharpening rods will polish and finish an edge in just 3-4 quick strokes. If you have a serrated blade, the ceramic bar will sharpen even the smallest serrations. Use the tapered diamond rod for fast reconditioning and maintenance of plain and serrated edges, but it's also great for gut hooks.
Customer Reviews
However, doing the paper test, the rod and the ceramic+carbide sharpeners have sharpened my knife nicely.
I'm sure the ceramic bar does just as well, but I'm honestly still a beginner at this process so I feel that the bar requires some getting used to in order to get the desired results.
Overall, this is a fantastic tool!
-Well built, solid metal construction.
-Small enough to put into whatever from a bag, a pocket, a tackle box, etc.
-Good for straight edges, serrations, curved blades, of any length.
-Works, gets blades pretty dang sharp.
-Easy to use.
-Good for honing too.
-Nice strong magnets hold the diamond rod in place securely.
Cons:
-Only one angle.
-Doesn't get blades razor sharp like a good stone does.
-Can't make me a sandwich
Seriously though, If you are not a perfectionist and just want a good sharp workable blade in a minute or so, can't go wrong with this. Most people will probably only use the ceramics to maintain their knives, the carbide pieces are for extremely dull blades or fixing a badly rolled edge. Have tried it on several common steels though not any extremely hard or exotic steels.
The body is metal, so it's not flimsy at all. Next year, a few friends and family members will be seeing these in their Christmas stockings!
