The standard Edge Pro table works well for kitchen knives and longer blades, but short knives present a problem - a blade that does not extend past the edge of the platform cannot be positioned correctly for consistent angle sharpening. The Small Knife Attachment, designed by Edge Pro founder Ben Dale, solves this by providing a narrower 2-inch wide platform that positions short blades properly relative to the sharpening arm. It is compatible with both the Apex and Professional models and includes an adjustable miniature guide plate to accommodate small knives of varying widths. The attachment measures 2 inches wide and 1/4 inch thick.
The practical range this opens up is significant. Petty knives, paring knives, pocket knives, and folding knives with blades under roughly 2.5 inches all benefit from the smaller platform. For anyone who sharpens folders regularly, the attachment is particularly useful - it allows the full blade to be sharpened in a single position without repositioning, which keeps the bevel consistent from heel to tip. Very small blades with complex geometry will still present some challenge, but for the broad category of short kitchen and EDC knives, this attachment fills a genuine gap in the standard Edge Pro setup.
What Customers Are Saying: Customers confirm the attachment does exactly what it is designed to do, with several noting it is a must-have for anyone who sharpens folding knives on the Edge Pro. Users appreciate that it hooks directly onto the existing machine without modification and handles the full sharpening stroke on short blades without needing to reposition. One reviewer notes that the attachment sits slightly farther from the rare earth magnet than the standard table, which requires a bit more attention to blade positioning, but considers this a minor trade-off for the access it provides to smaller blade formats.
Care Instructions: Wipe the attachment clean after each use to remove metal filings and moisture. Store in a dry location. Check that the adjustable guide plate is properly set before each session to ensure accurate blade positioning.

This is nicely made and helps with smaller knives. It is getting a little far from the ChefKnivesToGo supplied rare earth magnet (magnet in a recess in the attachment anyone?) so you give up some of the ease in keeping the blade on the table. Really small blades with complex shapes (like the secondaries on traditional folders) are the toughest but it does make a difference. Worth the money.

Great piece, hooks right up to your system. Basically makes sharpening any blade that is too small to reach over the length of your edge pro table easier to sharpen. I have a couple knives that are even too small for this attachment but you are not likely to have many of those. This is a must have for any of you guys out there sharpening folders. I love small folding knives, and with this you can sharpen the whole knife without moving the blade at all.
