Yaxell RANSHARP Knife Sharpener, 180 mm, art. 36022

The Yaxell RANSHARP knife sharpener (art. 36022) is designed for keeping kitchen knives sharp right at the workstation, without having to reach for a full whetstone every time. Its stone working surface is set to a 12.5° angle that matches the thin blade geometry of the Yaxell Ran and Zen knife lines, so it touches up the edge without altering the factory bevel.

The tool is 180 mm long overall, and its black handle gives a firm grip for the brief but frequent use it gets during a shift. Using it regularly between full sharpenings reduces wear on the blade and stretches the interval between professional sharpening sessions in a production kitchen.

Specifications

A sharpener like this is a consumable but important complement to the knives themselves in a production kitchen: in schools, kindergartens and hospitals, where knives are used for hours every day, regular edge touch-ups without a full sharpening cycle help staff work safely and efficiently. After use, the stone surface should be wiped clean of metal dust and dried, and the tool stored separately from other kitchen equipment in a dry place. A fixed angle matching the factory bevel also prevents the blade from being accidentally thinned out through frequent hand touch-ups by kitchen staff, which matters most where cutting volumes are high.
