Yoshikin 220/GB MinoSharp Water Sharpener Overview

This sharpener is named after the famous Shinkansen trains of Japan - sleek, fast, efficient and reliable. Each sharpening slot has two sharpening wheels pre-set at the factory Global angle for a perfect edge on your knife. The separate slots feature a coarse- and medium-grit wheel for a truly fine edge. Each wheel rotates over a small water reservoir to keep the blade clean and cool while sharpening. This sharpener is great for most Global knives. Exceptions: Serrated knives and those with a traditional Japanese edge, which have a different edge angle.

Yoshikin 220/GB MinoSharp Water Sharpener Specifications

Recommended for sharpening Global knives but not necessarily those from other manufacturers, this device employs two ceramic wheels--one coarse, the other fine--to return a dull knife to working order. Using the sharpener is simple and easy. Fill the wheels' compartment with water so your blade is continuously washed while it's being sharpened. Then draw a knife seven or eight times through the coarse (white) wheel. Then draw your blade seven or eight times through the fine (pink) wheel to bring it back to life. The sharpener's plastic handle is shaped so it can be gripped firmly and safely and has a soft, rubber-like insert for comfort. --Fred Brack
