The HORL 2 is a rolling knife sharpener that combines a diamond grinding disc and a ceramic honing disc with a magnetic angle holder, so you can switch between a 15° edge for Japanese and Damascus knives and a 20° edge for everyday kitchen knives. The industrial monocrystalline diamond disc sharpens steel of any hardness and never needs replacing, while the ceramic disc hones the edge to a razor-sharp finish.

The body is handcrafted from kiln-dried walnut in Germany's Black Forest and runs on precision ball bearings for smooth, play-free rolling. The kit includes the rolling sharpener, magnetic angle holder, diamond disc, and ceramic disc, and it measures 5.31 x 4.72 x 2.56 inches.

Highlights

  • The HORL2 combines a professional-grade diamond disc and ceramic honing disc to sharpen knives of any hardness, from European chef knives and pocket knives to stainless steel, carbon steel, and outdoor knives.

Materials & care

Wipe the walnut body with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not immerse in water. The diamond disc never needs replacing; the ceramic disc can be cleaned with water and mild soap.

How to use

Place the magnetic angle holder on the knife blade to set the 15° or 20° angle, then roll the sharpener back and forth along the edge. Use the diamond disc to grind the edge and the ceramic disc to hone it. On average, sharpening takes five minutes; subsequent resharpening needs only a few rolls.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to sharpen a knife with the HORL 2?

On average, it takes five minutes. The edge must first acquire the chosen 15° or 20° grinding angle, but thanks to the constant grinding angle, only a few rolls back and forth are needed for subsequent resharpening.

How can I tell if the desired sharpening angle has been reached?

Use the marker pen method to visually check the success of the grinding process. Carefully draw the felt tip of a marker pen along the entire knife edge, so that it simultaneously leaves ink on both sides.

Should I sharpen my knife at 15° or 20°?

In principle, kitchen knives of any quality can be sharpened at 20°. However, depending on the condition of the blade and the quality of the steel, many knives can be sharpened to an even finer edge at 15°.

What makes the HORL 2 unique?

It is engineered and designed in Freiburg, Germany, and features a natural walnut body with precision ball bearings for smooth, play-free rolling.
