Horl Knife Sharpener Step-By-Step Guide

June 16,2024

The standard honing disc that comes with the HORL 2 and HORL 2 Pro knife sharpeners, suitable for honing any kind of blade.

---DETAILS--- An interchangeable disc that affixes to the roller of HORL 2 or HORL 2 Pro knife sharpeners (not the HORL 2 Cruise), this standard ceramic honing disc is a replacement part. In a complex blasting process, the ceramic particles are applied to the stainless steel base of the disc at high temperatures and high speed. This results in a material that is best suited to putting an edge on Western or Japanese knives, either on its own (for moderately blunt blades) or after sharpening with a coarse grit (to re-align the edge). To use, simply unscrew an existing disc from a compatible HORL 2 roller, replace it with this one, and hone. The compact size makes it easy to store.

---BENEFITS--- 'The HORL 2 is quick, neat, and effective. While whetstones take time and practice to master, the HORL 2 does not. It’s like having the ease, speed and definition of a pull-through sharpener, but the versatility and relative gentleness of a whetstone.'

The standard diamond disc that comes with the HORL 2 and HORL 2 Pro knife sharpeners, suitable for sharpening (not honing) any kind of blade.

---DETAILS--- An interchangeable disc that affixes to the roller of HORL 2 or HORL 2 Pro knife sharpeners (not the HORL 2 Cruise), this standard coarse diamond-coated disc is a replacement part. It is best suited to sharpening blunt Western or Japanese knives, and should be followed by honing to realign the edge. To use, simply unscrew an existing disc from a compatible HORL 2 roller, replace it with this one, and sharpen. The compact size makes it easy to store. Please note that the first few times the diamond grinding side is used, excess diamond particles may be noticeably heard peeling off. After a few applications, the grinding sound becomes quieter and the grinding surface stabilises.
