Knivratix is a rolling knife sharpener with a natural wood body and two diamond discs. You push the roller across the blade to sharpen it. It needs no water, oil or electricity.
A magnetic base holds the knife at one of five set angles: 12°, 15°, 17°, 19° or 22°. The 400# diamond disc removes nicks and reshapes the edge. The 1000# disc then polishes it.
It is made for straight-edge knives, including Damascus steel knives. It does not work on serrated knives.
