A.G. Russell Knives

Slide Sharp. A new angle on knife sharpening.

The Slide Sharp uses a unique system of injection molded nylon guides to hold the knife edge at the specific angle required for optimum sharpening. A hardwood base holds a porcelain sharpening rod. Simply insert the rod in the base, slide a return spring over it, select the sharpening guide needed for your knife, and add the cap. Then pull your blade through the sharpening guide slot pressing down lightly. The return spring pops the guide up again for the next stroke. Repeat the same action as needed in the opposite slot, sharpening both sides of the blade equally, or as needed.

Two sharpening guides are included - 15° and 20°. These guides maintain the edge angle for you. There's no guessing, no rounded edges, and no loss of blade shape from over sharpening. The system also includes two porcelain sharpening rods. The coarser gray rod will remove more metal from the edge of the blade more quickly when your blade is really dull. The white rod will then hone the edge of the blade, or use it for touch up on a regular basis.

Slide Sharp is inexpensive and portable, buy one for the kitchen, the tool bench, your tackle box, even one for your favorite firearms case. Includes a molded plastic storage case. Patent pending.
