Thread: Spyderco Triangle Sharpmaker

Hi,
I have been using this sharpener for the last 15 years.
It works great. I would give a few hint to make the thing last longer:
If you can, buy the two diamond rods that go in that kit. They are expensive but well worth it.
They will help you to get the predermined angle much faster and will help preserve your ceramic stones on the long term.

Because what happens, is that eventually your stones will end up having a slight banana shape in the middle and they will not sharpen as well. You can try to "straighten" them by re surfacing them on a very flat piece of concrete floor for example ( the concrete pad of your shed :-).

Another solution, is to get an accusharp AccuSharp Knife Sharpeners - Sharpen Knives, Cutting Tools, Garden Tools, Scissors, Axes, Machetes, Cleavers - Edge Sharpener and pre shape your sharpening angle before using the spyderco.
That is another way of preserving your stones.

Another very handy little device is this one: Master
H n F sell the same but out of a wooden box. I have bought a few in the past as gifts for girl friends ,they are reasonably cheap and it is so easy for girls to sharpen their knifes.
