Lansky LKDMD5 - 5 Stone Dexlue Diamond Knife Sharpening System

The Lansky 5-Stone Deluxe Diamond System is a premium, controlled-angle sharpening kit from Lansky Sharpeners, designed for precise, repeatable edge restoration on knives, tools, and blades of various types. This deluxe diamond variant uses monocrystalline diamond hones for fast material removal, exceptional durability, and superior performance on hard/super steels ideal for beginners and experts alike seeking razor-sharp results with minimal effort. The patented guided system clamps the blade at fixed angles (typically 17° or 20° per side for common edges), ensuring consistent bevels every time. It includes five color-coded diamond stones from extra coarse to ultra fine, plus essential accessories in a custom molded case perfect for kitchen knives, hunting blades, pocket folders, or outdoor tools.

The Lansky LKDMD5 Deluxe Diamond System stands out for its diamond abrasives: they cut faster and last longer than standard stones (especially on tough steels), while the guided clamp eliminates guesswork for perfect symmetry and bevel angles.

Maintenance tip: Use the included honing oil liberally during sessions; clean stones with the brush and water as needed; store dry to preserve diamond integrity. A top-tier, foolproof sharpening solution from Lansky!
