Edge Pro Sharpeners
Edge Pro sharpeners take a distinct approach to guided sharpening that sets them apart from clamping-style systems. Instead of locking the blade in a vise and running stones across both sides simultaneously, the Edge Pro design positions the knife on a non-clamping guide and uses a pivoting stone arm to track the bevel angle precisely from heel to tip. That sweeping stone motion is what makes the Edge Pro a favorite for kitchen knives, longer fixed blades, and any geometry where stroke length matters more than dual-arm symmetry. DLT Trading carries Edge Pro Apex sharpeners alongside the full range of replacement stones, polish tapes, and accessories that the platform supports.
Edge Pro Apex and Professional Sharpening Platforms
The Edge Pro Apex is the portable, table-mounted version of the system, with adjustable angle settings from 10 to 24 degrees and pre-marked positions at 10, 15, 18, 21, and 24 degrees that cover the angle range for most kitchen, hunting, and EDC blades. The non-clamping blade guide accepts any blade length, which makes the Apex one of the few guided knife sharpening systems that comfortably handles a 12-inch chef's knife alongside a 3-inch folder without changing accessories. Edge Pro Professional models extend the angle range from 6 to 33 degrees and accept blades up to 5.5 inches wide, making them the right choice for users sharpening custom knives, larger fixed blades, or anything that exceeds the Apex's 3.5-inch width capacity. Both platforms use the same mounted water stone format, so stones, polish tapes, and accessories cross-compatible across the entire Edge Pro lineup.
Water Stones, Diamond Matrix, and Polish Tapes
The Edge Pro system runs on its own format of mounted abrasives, with three main types covering every step of the sharpening progression. Aluminum oxide water stones are the standard option, available across the full grit range from 120 grit for heavy reprofile work through 1000 grit for refined finishing edges. Diamond Matrix stones use diamond-bearing plates bonded to aluminum bases in 650, 1100, 2300, and 4000 grit specifications, delivering faster cut rates on harder modern blade steels where conventional sharpening stones can struggle. Polish tapes complete the progression at 2000, 3000, and 6000 grit, producing mirror finishes for users chasing the cleanest possible apex on premium kitchen and EDC blades. For the final stropping pass, Edge Pro stones pair naturally with leather strops loaded with sharpening compound or CBN emulsion to remove the burr and refine the edge before the blade goes back to work.
