Our selection
Grinding tool
Sharpen knives with the best knife sharpeners in the world. Diamond leather or Japanese whetstones, DMT diamond sharpeners from the USA, and classic honing leather give kitchen knives their sharpness.
No matter what you choose, at Schmiedeglut you will find our test winners, selected based on hundreds of hours of experience in knife sharpening. Tested with Damascus knives, the diamond leather is the test winner for fast razor sharpness. THE whetstone in first place in terms of price/performance is also ideal for the finest results with the honing leather.
However, after 60 seconds on the diamond leather, a kitchen knife can shave the hair off your arm again. Ultimately, any outdoor knife can be sharpened with water whetstones, but for the often smaller blades, a sharpening tool measuring 12 to 15 centimeters is sufficient. For a chef's knife with a 20 cm blade, the whetstone should also be at least 20 cm in size.
