Tormek KS-123 Knife Angle Setter
Are your knives ending up with uneven bevels or dull edges because you are guessing the sharpening angle each time?
What if you could set a clean, repeatable angle for any knife in seconds without math, trial and error, or worrying about tapered blades?
Meet the Tormek KS-123 Knife Angle Setter, your new partner in accurate, water-cooled knife sharpening built for consistent, predictable angles.
With its patented geometry and self-adjusting design, the KS-123 locks in exact angles and adapts automatically to your grinding wheel diameter.
When your angles stay true, your knives cut cleaner, last longer, and sharpening becomes a simple, reliable step in your workflow.
Get Precise, Repeatable Knife Angles Every Time
The KS-123 is a practical fit for chefs, sharpeners, home cooks, and anyone who wants dependable angle control on every knife they maintain.
Accurate Angle Setting for Any Knife
The KS-123 uses a patented geometric design that references the apex of the blade, ensuring the final angle stays correct even on tapered or flexible knives. With an adjustable range of 8 to 25 degrees per side, it covers everything from kitchen knives to outdoor blades. You get consistent, repeatable angles without trial and error.
Self-Adjusting for Every Wheel Diameter
The angle setter automatically compensates for changes in wheel size, whether the stone is new, worn, or replaced. This means the angle you set is always the angle you get, regardless of wheel wear. It removes the need for calculations and keeps your sharpening workflow simple and predictable.
Fast Three-Step Setup
Using the KS-123 is straightforward: snap it onto the universal support, adjust it to the protrusion of your knife in the jig, and raise or lower the universal support until the indicator matches your desired angle. The process is clear, quick, and easy to repeat, making precise sharpening accessible to anyone.
