Lansky Blade Medic Knife Sharpener

The Blade Medic is yet another class product from Lansky. It is an all purpose kit for your pocket or keys that will always keep a good hone on your knife.

There are various features; there is a set of Tungsten teeth for really damaged & blunt blades, a set of ceramic teeth for fine honing, a diamond tapered rod for sharpening all blades including serrated ones and a ceramic stone for fine honing serrated blades.

There is a lot of stuff and nonsense talked about this type of sharpener but they work, and work well. The usual complaint is that it removes too much material and damages the blade of the knife but that simply isn't true if used correctly. The main problem people get into is that they simply press the knife too hard into the teeth. The best way to use is to literally only use the weight of your hand and the knife and draw the knife through gently, do not push down!

I have personally used this type of sharpener for years and years and never had an issue. They are not suitable for Scandi Ground blades but ideal for every other type of blade with a secondary bevel.​​​​​​​

All in all a great product for your pocket or keys that is a great rival for the Smith's Pocket Pal.
