Lansky PS-MED01 BladeMedic Review

Lansky produces some of the most recognizable knife sharpeners in the world. The company does not stop its collection of knife sharpeners at one point, instead, they keep on developing new and innovative sharpeners which attract more and more customers. The amazing sharpeners manufactured by Lansky sharpeners are perfect to be used in every situation. You can take them along with you on camping or hiking or to any outdoor sports. Let’s take a look at the Lansky PS-MED01 BladeMedic.

Multifunctional Four in One Sharpener

For the Rough Stuff – A V-shaped Tungsten Carbide Sharpener

Because it removes a significant amount of material from the blade, this grinding shaft works best with a blade that is already quite dull.

As I previously mentioned, make prudent use of the carbide sharpener. It is not for general sharpening, but I have stored it away in case of an unexpected need to restore a blade.

During the sharpening process, the tungsten carbide jaws have a tendency to make a rattling sound; nonetheless, with three or four passes, a dull blade can be brought back to its original sharpness.

For the Fine Stuff – A V-shaped Ceramic Sharpener

After you have sharpened the edge with the tungsten carbide sharpener or the diamond rod, use this to do the finishing sharpening and general maintenance on the edge. It is always preferable to keep the blade sharp rather than having to resharpen it after it has become dull, so this chute is ideal for a few quick pulls either during or after the use of the knife.

Both of the V-shaped grinding wheels have been adjusted to an angle of approximately 22.5 degrees; this is a good angle for achieving decent utility sharpness on working knives. To reiterate, all that is required to achieve a mirror-like finish on the bevel is three or four pulls of the polishing cloth.

For Saw Grinding – A Ceramic Sharpener

I am not a huge fan of saw or serrated edges on outdoor knives, but I tried the sharpener on the saw blade of a kitchen knife just to make sure it would work for this review, and it did. I am not a fan of saw or serrated edges on outdoor knives.

It is not as convenient as the specific stone for sharpening “serrated” blades that you can obtain for the Lansky set, but it is capable of getting into the smallest of the prongs. The BladeMedic, on the other hand, is a portable choice for use in the field, whereas the large Lansky set is not.

In addition to sharpening fishhooks, this sharpener is also excellent for refining the edge of larger instruments that have been sharpened with the diamond bar.

For serrated Edge Knives – Folding Diamond Grinding Rod

This feature is particularly helpful for the speedy preparation and maintenance of wavy blades, such as those seen on bread knives. The diamond dust removes significantly more material with each stroke than the ceramic sharpener does, and this is especially true when the serrations on the blade have already been rounded.

The rod is also very useful for sharpening exceptionally large blades, such as those found on Leuku knives or machetes. These blades are difficult to balance in the V-shaped sharpeners, so the rod is the best option for sharpening them. At this point, the diamond sharpening rod is guided in the same manner as a sharpening rod. Similarly, I prepare instruments such as chisels and the axe to be used once more with it.
