PRECISION AND SPEED, PROFESSIONAL RESULTS

Built in collaboration with knife-making legend Ken Onion, the Mk.2™ brings professional-level powered sharpening to your workbench or job site. Adjustable angles from 15°–30°, variable speed control across seven settings, and flexible belt technology deliver razor-sharp, repeatable results on knives, scissors, and tools — no sharpening experience required.

TOTAL CONTROL OVER EVERY EDGE

Flexible Belt Technology – engineered abrasive belts conform to straight, curved, and specialty blade shapes, creating an ideal edge profile on any knife or tool quickly and consistently.

Leather-lined angle guides – lock in precise angles from 15° to 30° while protecting blade faces from scratching. Reworked guide design improves belt access for easier sharpening of a wider variety of blade shapes.

Variable speed motor – seven LED speed settings give you complete control, from low-speed finesse for delicate knife edges to high-speed power for heavy-duty tool sharpening.

Scope-click angle adjustment – half-degree turret clicks on the angle guide deliver precise, repeatable angle settings every session, so your edge is always exactly where you left it.

Tool Sharpening Cassette – included 65° scissor guide extends the system to scissors and a wide range of edged tools including axes, hatchets, lawnmower blades, pruning shears, and shovels.

Complete abrasive kit – five 3/4" × 12" belts from P120 extra coarse through to 6000 grit extra fine cover every stage of sharpening, from edge repair to a razor-polished finish.

3-year warranty – the Ken Onion Edition Mk.2™ is built for serious, long-term use and backed with confidence.

FAQs

How beginner-friendly is it?

Simple enough for anyone to operate, but the wide range of speeds and adjustable angles make it better suited for users with some sharpening experience. The additional capability gives you more control over your edge — but it also means there's more potential to damage a blade if you're new to sharpening. Most users find the learning curve short and the results worth it.

What are the most appreciated upgrades vs. the original Ken Onion Mk 1?

The most notable upgrades are redesigned speed controls with more precise settings, a scope-click angle adjustment system for half-degree changes, and leather-lined guides that protect blade finishes. The guides are also reworked for better access to the abrasive belt, making it easier to sharpen a wider variety of blade shapes.

Can it handle more than knives?

Yes. Beyond knives, the Mk.2™ sharpens axes, hatchets, lawnmower blades, shovels, pruning shears, scissors, and most other edged tools. If it has a blade or an edge, the Mk.2™ can likely restore it to peak performance.

How long does it take to sharpen a knife?

A quick touch-up typically takes under 2 minutes. Restoring a very dull or damaged edge generally takes about 3–5 minutes for a razor-sharp finish.

What accessories should I consider buying?

Most users find the Mk.2™ complete right out of the box. The Blade Grinding Attachment is a popular add-on for advanced sharpening and custom edge profiles. Replacement abrasive belts are available, and the Work Sharp Shop Mat helps contain sharpening dust for easier cleanup.
