Works really well for the most part
Ok so I use this set constantly for everything from my dads camping knife to my moms kitchen knifes and it works really well for that. the setting are accurate and have a nice range for edge angles (i guess that's what they're called?). however I must admit that when you used it on the 17 degree setting the bar and actual stone end up running into the red tensioning knob which makes it a bit of a pain to sharpen that section of the blade without turning it over which is the only reason it gets 4 out of 5 stars. I even tend to take this with me when I go camping or hiking since it is relatively light and self contained.
Pros:
- works well
- Very sharp
Cons:
- some slight fitment issues
Best Used for:
- sharpening small to medium knifes
Would recommend: Yes
Excellent system
Pretty easy to use, fast. My favorite type of sharpener.
On your first use [per knife] you have to determine what the grinding angle of that knife, and put the stone into the corresponding slot. Go to town. Move to a finer grit stone a couple of times. Check the edge on your thumbnail, or with some paper cutting. Done.

5 stone system
This is one of the best, if not the best, methods to put a razor's edge on my blades. The caveat here is that is does take some practice with the equipment to do this, but it is well worth it and not difficult. The angle guide is indispensable in getting the proper angle for each particular blade. I finish off my sharpening with the polishing using a leather belt on a 1" sander and polishing compound. Works great with machetes, hatchets, and axes.
Pros:
- Razor sharp blades
Cons:
- None
Would recommend: Yes
LANSKY 5 STONE PRO SYSTEM!!!
DIFFICULT TO USE AT FIRST BUT IF YOUR PATIENT AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GET YOUR KNIVES HAIR POPPING SHARP! I RECOMMEND YOU ALSO GET THE STAND, SAPHIRE STONE, AND THE LEATHER STROPE . IT IS A GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO THE MORE EXPENSIVE SHARPENING SYSTEMS.
Would recommend: Yes
