DMT Aligner Pro Kit Diamond Sharpener

I purchased the aligner to use whilst in Zambia - normally uses a Lansky. I used it to sharpen my knife with a CPM S30V blade. Struggled a bit to get the correct angle and stroke but in the end I got the knife much sharper than with the Lansky and in about half the time. The knife still had an edge so I only used the fine stone. The DMT stones seems to be more aggressive and with the fine stone achieved a smooth edge. I saw some reviews people were saying the knife looses the edge quicker I could not verify that, as a matter of fact in my case the edge retention was similar or maybe even better than the with the Lansky but the knife was definitely sharper. Would however preferred the blade holder and to be made out of a more robust material. The angle adjusters have more control on the blade angles although the adjusters appear to be flimsy. Overall I am very satisfied with the product and it works well.

Very good

Works well and sharpens knives. I've used it to restore the edge on a couple of damaged blades. Slightly different angles if used dual sided.

I have the Aligner Deluxe Kit for about 2 weeks now. I have used it for several knives with different hardness (the hardest is S30v steel)and it makes the all razor sharp!! The only slight drawback it has is that the angel is not quite the same on both sides. This is by far the best sharpener I have ever owned and is very price-worthy!
