Lansky Medium Serrated Hone

If one already owns a Lansky sharpening system (I've employed a five stone set for 25 years), this and the fine grade stone for serrated edges, are a great addition to one's set. I use these hones with the Lansky honing oil. There are easy to follow videos on YouTube to demonstrate the Lansky system technique for sharpening serrated edges. The Lansky hones for serrated knives make sharpening serrated edges easy. With a little practice, the Lansky hones make a good working edge something easy to develop. Considering how many modern knife offerings are "combo" blades, these easy to employ hones are very needed by many outdoors-men, and EDC knife owners.

For getting a dull blade back to life again. Lansky is the best. Easiest and most fool proof method of sharpening your knives. Can't beat em. just be patient and you will have the sharpest blade imaginable.

We cook and bake often, using our knives several times a day. We had an old Chef's electric grinding type wheel sharpener, but it never got the knives to the sharpness that we were looking for. My wife bought me a complete set of Lansky Diamond hones. I have a very nice serrated bread knife, but never had the tools to sharpen it. My Wife went the extra mile, and purchased the Lansky Medium and Fine hones for serrated knives. It takes a long time to sharpen a serrated knife, you have to sharpen each serration separately, and then take down the burr created on the back side. The Lansky Hone(s) did a fantastic job on the Bread Knife, and now it slices easily and effortlessly. A must have for serrated knives!

Excellent choice for sharpening a serrated edge. As with the Lansky set, the fine stones are very fine in coarseness. This medium stone is a little on the"fine" side and is a good choice. I only use this one stone for the serrated edge, and it does a great job. I have used this on my Zero Tolerance 0350S. So you can see the type of serrations it works on. Just line the serrated area of the blade with the holding clamp. I use my Lansky set with the table top "Lansky Super "C" Clamp" holder. It helps to be able to get a close look at the work being done.

A bit of a hassle to handle but if you know what you are doing this works just great. Got to sharpen my knifes and friends knifes.

Good stone, but don't expect you can make a razor on serrated edge with only this. It is tricky and requires skill, that is what I understood. Also what I have understood is that I would never ever buy serrated knife except if I would need an emergency knife for quick belt/garment removal, or for a battle knife may be. In EDC or heavyduty knife the serration is a drawback imho.

Nice addition to a Lansky sharping set. Does a great job on the serrated blades. I have found anything Lansky makes to be top notch. The Lansky box sets maintain the exact angle for the blade edge, every time. The stones if used as directed, with the honing ,will last a life time.

As advertised.
