CINQ Rolling Knife Sharpener

The magnetic pentagon base holds your knife firmly in place at a fixed angle while you roll the sharpener along the edge. This eliminates the human error of trying to maintain a steady hand, ensuring you achieve the exact same bevel angle across the entire length of the blade.

Yes. Because the system features five adjustable sharpening angles, you can customize the setup to match the specific geometry of your blades, whether you are sharpening a delicate Japanese knife or a more robust Western outdoor tool.

The helix honing disc is the final step in the process. After using the diamond grit discs to sharpen the edge, the honing disc aligns the metal fibers to ensure the blade is perfectly straight and smooth, which significantly improves cutting performance and edge retention.

Not necessarily. If your knife is already relatively sharp and just needs a touch-up, you can start with the finer grit discs. However, if the blade is dull or has minor chips, you should cycle through all three grits—400, 1000, and 2000—to properly repair and refine the edge.

No, this rolling sharpener is designed specifically for straight-edge blades. It is not compatible with serrated knives, as the rolling mechanism cannot effectively reach the individual teeth of a serrated edge.

No, this is a dry sharpening system. The diamond grit discs are designed to work effectively without the need for lubricants, water, or oil, making the setup and cleanup process much faster and cleaner.
