YOUR NEW WORKBENCH ESSENTIAL

The Knife & Tool Sharpener Mk.2 is a versatile powered sharpener built for fast, consistent results across knives, scissors, and workshop tools. With flexible belts, precision angle guides, and a dual-speed motor, it delivers easy, reliable sharpening for both new and experienced users.

PRO-LEVEL SHARPENING TECHNOLOGY

Flexible Belt Technology – cool-cutting engineered abrasive belts conform to straight, curved, and specialty blade shapes. This helps deliver consistent sharpening results while reducing heat build-up.

Precision angle guides – make it easy to maintain the correct edge angle every time. Quickly switch between 20° for kitchen and finer blades, and 25° for outdoor and pocket knives.

Leather-lined guides – help protect blade faces from scratching while keeping sharpening smooth and controlled. They add confidence and consistency throughout the sharpening process.

Dual-speed motor – allows for the optimal amount of material removal. Low speed gives control and finesse when sharpening knives, while high speed provides extra power for heavier sharpening and grinding tasks on tools.

Quick-change abrasive belts – make it simple to swap grits and keep the sharpener performing at its best. Replacement is fast and tool-free, so you can move from repair to refine in seconds.

Heavy-duty construction – is built for durability and regular workshop use. The Mk.2 is designed to deliver reliable performance across a wide range of sharpening tasks.

3-year warranty – gives added confidence that the sharpener is built for long-term use. It is dependable, practical, and backed for everyday performance.

FAQs

Is the Mk.2 easy to use for someone with no sharpening experience?

Yes. The Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener Mk.2 is designed for users of all skill levels, including complete beginners. Angle guides remove the guesswork from choosing and holding the correct sharpening angle, making it easy to get great results right away. It’s also versatile enough for advanced users who want a fast, effective sharpener for both indoor and outdoor knives.

How does the Mk.2 differ from the original version?

The Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener Mk.2 adds dual-speed control, simplified angle adjustment, leather-lined guides to protect blade finishes, and a front edge guide for better stability. These updates make sharpening smoother, more consistent, and easier to control.

How long does it take to sharpen a knife?

A quick touch-up on the Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener Mk.2 usually takes less than 2 minutes. Sharpening a very dull or damaged edge typically takes about 3–4 minutes to restore a razor-sharp finish.

Are belts from the original model compatible with the Mk.2?

Yes. All belts from the original Knife & Tool Sharpener are fully compatible with the Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener Mk.2, so you can use any existing belts you already own.

Is it a good option for gifts or casual home use?

The Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener Mk.2 is an excellent first sharpener that’s simple to use, built to last, and versatile enough for everything from kitchen knives to scissors to outdoor blades. It makes a thoughtful and practical gift for anyone who uses knives regularly.

How do I track the belts on the MK2?

On the Mk.2 the belt is tracked and set at the factory, so it should not need frequent adjustment. If adjustment is needed, the belt tracking screw is located on the back of the sharpener. Remove the guide by pulling straight up and off. With the machine running and a belt installed, use a flat head screwdriver to slowly turn the tracking fastener until the belt is centered on the top pulley.

How do I remove the angle guide?

Simply pull the angle guide straight up to remove it. It’s a snug fit but removable. Remember to flip the Edge Guide down when using the grinder.

How do I change the angle on my new guide?

Adjust the angle by pushing the lever on the back of the guide up or down. The lever will snap into position.

My Edge Guide has grooves worn into it. How do I replace it?

Grooves can form over time from heavy pressure. Use a lighter touch and let the belt do the work. Replacement Edge Guides are available.

How do I track the belt on my MK.2 sharpener?

The belt is factory-set and usually doesn’t need adjustment. If needed, remove the guide, then use a flathead screwdriver on the tracking screw at the back while the machine runs. Turn slowly until the belt centers on the top pulley.

What are the RPMs for each speed?

The speed is the same as the Original KTS, with a high of 3600–4000 SFM and a low speed at approximately half that, around 1600–2000 SFM.
