This Super Togeru sharpening guide slides onto the spine of the knife to keep your angle constant when sharpening on a stone. Works great and has a white slip strip to make for easy use and prevents you from scratching or gouging your stones.
The guide does exactly what it’s designed to do,which is to help a sharpening novice keep a consistent angle. This is great for a beginner sharpener.
The angle is completely undefined; although I recognize the angle will change according to the blade height.
Also,the guide is a bit short for longer blades (say,in excess of 7") and needs to be re-positioned when sharpening. Unfortunately it scratched my knives as a result of this re-positioning. I recommend placing some masking tape on the knife before installing the guide to protect the knife’s finish.
