While that used to be true - some clever folks, including Lansky, are re-inventing the process. I won't completely give up on my older stones, for some knives I feel they deserve the 'old ways'. For the stainless steel kitchen and general purpose knives I own this set seems just right. Plus - I can be interrupted by my kids, set this down on the workbench to help them, pick it up later and know exactly where I am in the process. Most 'knife sharpening systems' are designed to hone the blade (ceramic rods), or grind way too much off (electric sharpeners). You either don't do enough or you eat away too much steel with the cousin of an electric can opener. This system helped me sharpen my knives quickly, efficiently and still have time to make dinner in the same night. Don't jump the gun, read the instructions first. Really. It's a pretty simple process, but an important one to understand for a consistent edge. Sharpening my first two knives took nearly an hour each as they each had some flat spots on the blade edge that required a lot of work. Since then, I've become more efficient, though some knives require more work to get a consistent angle on the edge. For most knives it's been about 20 minutes each - even if they were relatively sharp when I started. Why? When using this system on a knife for the first time - use *all* the stones *especially* the coarse stone. *Tip #1* mark the cutting edge of a knife with a permanent marker to be sure you are using the system properly and the edge is consistently at the proper angle. Several of mine, with a factory edge, were off in two or three spots. *Tip #2* - use the oil! I heard some reviews complaining about the stones clogging up. This happens more on some knives than others - even with the same steel & brand of knives. The oil 'floats' the steel shavings off the stone so the excess can be wiped off. If your stone is discolored by steel shavings use the oil, rub it a bit with your fingertip, then wipe the excess oil and steel shavings away. If you use a white paper towel you can see just how much steel was on the stone. If you are a hobbyist, want to have very sharp knives and have some blades that need to be re-edged due to regular use or even slight damage or mistreatment - this is enough to do that. You may need additional stones (which are available) or a strop if you want a mirror finish or want to shave with a blade. If you're a professional - I'll let you decide if this is fast enough and accurate enough for you as I am not. What I do know is that I, shamefully, had a few knives that would crush a full sized tomato before 'slicing' it. After a proper sharpening with this kit I could not only slice a sheet of paper into fine ribbons, I could cut about 10-15 perfect tiny slices from a single cherry tomato. My 4 year old now wants tiny tomato sandwiches. In hindsight - I learned you shouldn't do this test with your children watching. Review: less expensive than a new set of knives - I thought I was all cool sharpening my kitchen knives with a plain old stone. The first couple goes yielded good results, but eventually I came to understand that I had completely destroyed the bevel on my knives. I did not grow up on a farm (like everyone else here, apparently) and so I seem to have no ability to hold a consistent angle while using a stone. As a result I ended up rounding off the bevel on the knives over time. I bought this kit as a last-ditch attempt to save the knives. As such, I wasn't worried about ruining them and was free to following the instructions on the video and experiment as I attempted to cut a new bevel on the knives. I am happy to report that I was successful at creating very nice edges on the blades. Even on the 8" chef I simply mounted the clamp in the middle of the blade. I would guess that the angle of the bevel is "wrong" at the tip and near the handle as a result, but it's still 1000x better than what I was doing, and as long as I'm consistent with clamp placement I should be able to maintain that edge. I added a ceramic ultra fine hone to the kit. In the short term I probably would have been better off with the extra coarse to help me cut the new bevels faster, but in the long run I hope I'll get more use out of the ultra fine hone. Finishing with the ceramic is very satisfying and gives the edge a nicely polished shine. The bit about using oil to clean the hones by "floating" the metal out of the pores was a revelation for me, and certainly seems to work. Clean regularly if you're cutting a new bevel, it'll save you a lot of wasted effort. Probably a well known trick, but while experimenting I found that using an overhead light was the best way to know if I was making progress on the coarse cut. After a few passes you get a new glint for the beginning of the repaired bezel. If you tip the knife farther away from the light you'll pick up other glints for previous bezels, or even a sustained glint for a rounded bezel. Keep going until that's gone. At the very end you'll have a tiny glint that seems to float off the edge of the blade: almost there! Keep going until even that is gone. I suspect this is similar to the advice I've seen to grind until you raise a burr on the other side, but I found it easier to look for the glint than to feel for the burr. Make sure there's only one light above you, or you'll get multiple glints even with a good bevel, one from each light. ## Features - Ideal for keeping blades of all kinds sharp. - Complete sharpening system from Lansky includes all of the tools you need for regular sharpening maintenance of your straight edge, serrated, and scalloped edge blades. - The set includes four hones: medium serrated edge, coarse, medium, and fine; a multi-angle knife clamp; specially formulated honing oil; a molded storage/carrying case; and complete instructions. - Use this kit on your kitchen, utility, hunting, or fishing knives to maintain their sharp edges and maximum cutting ability. - Made in USA - 1 year manufacturer warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000B8L6M2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #245,712 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #921 in Knife Sharpeners | | Brand | Lansky | | Brand Name | Lansky | | Color | Red | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 757 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00080999058008 | | Grit Type | Medium,Coarse,Fine | | Included Components | Universal System | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 10.25"L x 9.75"W x 1.5"H | | Item Highlight | Nylon handle | | Item Type Name | Universal 4 Stone System | | Item Weight | 0.3 kg | | Manufacturer | Lansky | | Manufacturer Part Number | LKUNV | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | | Material | Synthetic | | Material Type | Synthetic | | Model Number | LKUNV | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 10.25"L x 9.75"W x 1.5"H | | UPC | 097914389123 080999050088 977175689135 080999058008 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Lansky - **Color:** Red - **Grit Type:** Medium,Coarse,Fine - **Item Highlight:** Nylon handle - **Item Weight:** 0.3 kg - **Manufacturer:** Lansky - **Material:** Synthetic - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Product Dimensions:** 10.25"L x 9.75"W x 1.5"H - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![Lansky Universal Sharpening System - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PfwWRlUBL.jpg) ![Lansky Universal Sharpening System - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WJgg-cV1L.jpg) ![Lansky Universal Sharpening System - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YdB6AnCPL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than new *by A***S on September 28, 2012* In my opinion - there's a certain art to sharpening with a stone, and it normally takes a lot of time, FOCUS and patience to do it.

The bad: if your blade isn't very wide you'll bump the sharpening base with your stone if you're going for a 17 degree grind. It was a good half an hour before I noticed this was happening. I had this issue with my Opinel No. 8 which is not by any means a narrow blade. The ugly: Not gonna beat around the bush here, I am the idiot this product is designed for. It still took quite a long time to put a usable edge on my knife, the whole thing is actually rather complicated to use. It takes the margin of error out of using a stone, but as a result makes the actual process more difficult. I'd recommend it as a good product for someone who's really good at following instructions but really awful at precision work. All in all a decent 4-star product. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lansky Universal Sharpening System LKUNV - Lansky Universal Mount: Knife Sharpening System Mount - LM009 - Lansky Leather Stropping Polishing Hone, HSTROP, One Size --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://china.desertcart.com/products/3774527-lansky-universal-sharpening-system](https://china.desertcart.com/products/3774527-lansky-universal-sharpening-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart China* *Store origin: CN* *Last updated: 2026-10-23*
