Choosing Your Edge Kit

Choosing Your Edge Kit

Choosing the correct lineup of accessories is just as important, if not more important, than choosing your sharpener. Every Wicked Edge sharpener is able to get you the same results... it's the abrasive lineup that you use that determines what your results will be. 
Below is an outline of our Edge Kits, packs that include a full assortment of stones, strops, and abrasives to get you the perfect Wicked Edge for you and your blades. 

Note: anywhere it says 800/1000 optional means that those stones are required for this progression, but when purchasing an Edge Kit, if your sharpener came with those stones, you can opt out of purchasing them again.

Blank Convex Handles, 30 Micron Diamond Lapping Film, 15 Micron Diamond Lapping Film, Lighted Loupe
