Lansky Turn Box 4 cer/diam TB-2D2C Sharpener

TheLansky Turn Box 4 cer/diam TB-2D2C is a simple sharpening system with ceramic and diamond rods for sharpening kitchen knives, everyday knives and survival tools.

Traditional hand sharpening considered by many knife enthusiasts as the best method of sharpening requires experience, skill and patience, which most of us do not find the time or desire for.

For those looking for simpler and equally effective sharpening methods, Lansky has designed the Lansky Turn Box sharpener.

Construction

The construction of the sharpener is very simple, consisting of a wooden base, with holes at different angles, and a set of ceramic and diamond sharpening rods.

The user can decide on the sharpening angle himself, based on his own preferences, the purpose of the knife or the specifications given by the manufacturer.

When the rods of the same gradation are placed in the holes, a V-type (double-sided) system with a constant sharpening angle is created. This allows you to maintain control over the grinding process, thus affecting its correctness and the quality of sharpening.

The wooden base also acts as a transport container, allowing the elements of the set to be carried safely in one place.

When packed, the kit weighs 210 g and takes up little space, so survival and bushcraft enthusiasts can also use it in field conditions.

Sharpening angles

Depending on the type and purpose of the knife, the cutting edge can have a different angle, affecting the strength and cutting performance. The Lansky Turn Box sharpener offers 2 angle settings most commonly used by knife manufacturers.

• 20° - kitchen knives, pocket knives, small edc folders,
• 25° - large edc folders, hunting knives, outdoor knives, survival knives

Rods

The set includes two types of sharpening rods: ceramic and diamond. Ceramic rods with a gradation of 1000 are made of hard alumina, allowing polishing and sharpening of popular steels such as 440C, N690, 14C28N, AUS8.

Diamond-coated rods with a gradation of 600, are designed for sharpening highly hardened steel of high hardness, e.g. CPM-S30V, M390, Elmax, as well as faster sharpening of steel of lower hardness.

Included:

• 2 diamond rods with a gradation of 600 medium for working sharpness,
• 2 ceramic rods with a gradation of 1000 extra fine for polishing or quick sharpening

To clean the ceramic rods, it is worth buying the Lansky Eraser Block LERAS, which allows you to easily and quickly remove the surface tarnish of steel, deposited on the ceramics during sharpening.
