Knife Sharpener

69Viking · 01-09-2009, 01:02 PM

Looked around and didn't see anything on this subject. My question is what is a good knife sharpener for hunting knives that doesn't cost more than say $20 or $30? It can be manual or electric. I just want something basic to keep a good edge on hunting knives that are of good quality.

Diamond, the hardest material known, is the most efficient abrasive for quickly sharpening & honing all knives and tool materials. available at pensacola hardware ,academy, etc. easy to use keeps a great edge on my knives . the knife guy at t&w flea market (drives a green ford van)puts the best edge on a knife that i know of. they are scary sharp and only a dollar a knife.

Thanks guys you've definitely given me some options to look at. I might actually invest a little more and get the Lansky Diamond System recommended from a user at Deer and Deer Hunting. I'll make a visit to Basspro when my tax refund comes in and make my decision then. Again thanks for all the input, I'm definitely in the right direction now. Knife sharpening has never been my strong point!

I could not sharpen a knife worth a crap and always depended on others to do it for me, untill I went to Academy and got the Lansky Diamond. That rascal WORKS!!!

go with the lansky system, it will put a good edge on a blade. i'd save a few $ and go to academy instead off bps they seem to be high on everything.

I also would recommend the Lansky sharpeners. The other style with the carbide inserts are great as a field sharpener. Check out Lansky's web site, http://lanskysharpeners.com they have a video that shows how to use their shapeners. I do sell these sharpeners, but I don't know if the big box store have better pricing or not. I would happy to get some pricing for anyone if needed.
