Angle Guides For Sharpening Stones. The number one question we get from first time sharpeners is "how do I find the correct angle?" These little angle guides sit on the stone to give you a very clear idea of what angle to use without getting in the way of sharpening the knife like the clip on angle guides have trouble with. Simply select the angle guide you want to use, place it on the stone and secure it with a rubber band and place the knife on it to establish the angle.

Nice angle guides q, March 15, 2019Posted By: Alan - verified customer
These are very handy to keep you focused on putting your knife to the stone at the right angle. For all these years I just went by feel, I never knew what knives were meant to be sharpened at what angle!!!
These are a big help!

Have sanded down the underside of a couple of the wedges so that the leading edge is now only .02" thick compared to .05" on a new one. We will see if that eliminates the need to slide the blade down the wedge to get accurate angulation. That is particularly necessary for the shallower angles like 10 degrees

A 'must' in my sharpening toolbox, October 29, 2018Posted By: Lionel Joyce

A terrific accessory for any waterstone addict who cares about the edge angle. I use one under the blade to get angle reference before making a few passes, and re-check at each series of new passes. Have recently thinned down all my harder knives to 10 degree edge, softer steels to 12 degree, with confidence that I'm in the right ball park. The reflection on the bevel tells me so. Just one trick that I learned for a 10 degree edge is to place the blade on the guide deliberately high, and then slide the blade until the edge just touches the stone. There is a tangible thickness to the guide, which can throw off the angle of the blade if you push the guide under the blade too far

I was show a group of young folks how to free hand sharpen the other day. These angle guides where great for them to understand how angles are so important for developing a consistent bevel. They caught on rapidly. Again,cktg customer service,easy ordering,and product selection is the best in the business.Thanks to Mark,and his staff for making this a enjoyable experience.

I cannot imagine why every new freehand sharpener would not buy this inexpensive set of angle guides. Well made and easy to use. They give you the correct angle to use while you build up your confidence and muscle memory. Great idea and well worth the money.

The angle guides are a good reference , they get strapped to,your stone then lay your knife at the fixed angle . Since they are affixed to the stone they don't move with the knife and it's up to you to keep the angle across the stone. There is a learning curve but the work good if you know what angle your shooting for with your knife.
