Productinformatie

Sander zegt

Zo simpel en zo doeltreffend.
We hebben er zelf een getest, werkt goed.
Je kan met de bijgeleverde 220 korrel echt messen super scherp krijgen, wij houden meer van de 600, dat gaat misschien een stuk langzamer maar het geeft een mooier resultaat.
This is the first M-Power product designed specifically for use in the kitchen. Although we're pretty sure when woodworkers find themselves cooking, they're likely to prefer using knives that have a decent edge.
15 years ago we launched a unique lateral stroke sharpener for chisels and plane blades.
The name of the product was and is FAST TRACK.
An acronym: Fixed - Angle - Sharpening - Technology TRACK
The KS embraces the FASTTRACK ethos of a controlled, predictable and repeatable sharpening stroke - No other handheld sharpener does this.
Although it's taken 12 years from the first proto type to commercial launch, we're hopeful you'll think it was worth the wait.

The FTS KS truly embodies the idea of genuine "Knife care".
Being the only handheld sharpener in the world that has interchangeable grades of diamond stones and an "on board" real leather Strop for finishing that freshly ground edge; but most important is the KS's ability to create and maintain a truly fine edge in seconds.

PRE-PREPARATION
We quickly learnt how many existing sharpeners on the market actually damaged the knives they purport to be sharpening. The Fasttrack KS approach and design undertakes the task of sharpening in a completely different way.
It does something we call "Pre-preparation".
The KS creates a full bevelled edge on both sides of the blade. The convergent point of the 2 bevels becomes the blade edge. So when in time the knife dulls. It literally takes 3 to 6 sharpening strokes on each knife side to refresh the blade edge. This is because the prepared material above the convergent point is already set and ground to the correct bevel angle.

SHARPENING TECHNIQUE
The FTS KS can be used on a work-surface.
We've learnt it helps the less experienced to stand the FTS KS on its non slip nitrile feet on a worktop, it isn't as quick as using it freehand but it can give much needed confidence to the novice and it Improves the sense of control over the sharpening process. Most importantly this technique gives you a clear sight of the blade against the strike plate and diamond stone. Which helps develop an understanding as to how the Fasttrack KS works.

FREE HAND - SHARPENING TECHNIQUE
For those familiar with sharpening the FTS KS can be hand held and has a sharpening action not dis similar to that of a chefs steel but crucially without the necessity to learn to maintain a consistent contact angle between two handheld objects - Steel in one hand and knife in the other. Embedded rare earth magnets assist in holding the blade side against the strike plate. Ensuring that the blade tip meets the 3" DC diamond stone consistently at exactly the right angle.

SHARPENING ANGLE
No other aspect of the FTS KS has taken so much deliberation. From the research and feedback we received we decided that a sharpening angle of 17 deg or an inclusive angle of 34 degwould offer the best all round performance for work in the kitchen.

"ON BOARD" LEATHER STROP
We know of no other knife sharpener that combines instant fixed angle sharpening with a honing strop. The dish profiled leather strop ensures that any wire/burr created by the sharpening process is removed with the only material that offers a compliant yet durable surface - leather.
When it comes to finishing a blade edge, it's hard to ignore the time honoured qualities of leather and so; quite late on in the design process. We decided to inset the strike plate with a leather surface. This helps to prevent damage to the side of the blade during a sharpening stroke and over time helps to burnish the side of the knife.

CONSISTENT SHARPENING ANGLE
The critical element that decides on whether you sharpen your knife or blunt it.
Is a consistent angled contact point between the knife edge and the abrasive.
Get that right and every time you wish to regain an edge you can be sure that the same point of contact at the same angle minimizes abrasion, getting your knife edge sharp again.
Our solution was to embed 2x rare earth magnets just below the surface of the strike plate. This helps hold the blade side at the correct angle to meet the diamond stone with every sharpening stroke.

DIAMOND CROSS DIAMOND STONES
Importantly M-Power has now had over 15 years experience in developing and manufacturing our own range of diamond stones. We've learnt that there are many different ways people like to go about sharpening tools and knives. However the common thread that runs through all these different techniques is to have a great quality abrasive. 5 years ago we launched our unique DC (Diamond Cross) range of diamond stones. All those personal preferences fed into our decision to offer 5 different accessory grades of diamond stone to be used with the FTS KS.

Extra Coarse - Grey - 100
Preparation - Black - 220
Finishing - White - 450
Fine Finishing - Red - 600
Super Fine Finishing - Green - 1000

If you need to remove a nick from a blade edge or to re-establish a pair of full bevel edges. The super abrasive 100 grit Extra course removes the maximum material in the shortest time. Then again it's personal preference that determines the grade you choose to use to finish your knives with.

QUICK CHANGE OPTION
We feel we'd failed you, if every time you wanted to change a diamond stone grade. You'd have to find a screwdriver to complete the task. So like the original FASTTRACK, diamond stones are quick change, held in place by a magnet with the process start to finish taking less than 20 seconds to start.

STORAGE
Traditionally "AUTO" sharpeners are bench mounted, can have a lot of components and take time to assemble and use. Certainly not something you'd want set up on your kitchen worksurface. Midway through cooking a dish. Not so the FASTTRACK KS, it can be stored in a kitchen draw, used and replaced in less than 30 seconds. There's no assembly or set up. Less than a dozen sharpening strokes later, the result, a truly sharp knife in next to no time with the FTS KS back in the drawer.

CONSTRUCTION
The FTS KS is very well built. We manufacture products that are designed to literally last a lifetime.
Using the best quality components made in the most durable materials we can find. For example all the fixings (9 screws in total) are made in stainless steel and are fitted in our factory in the UK. The leather strops are scythed, prepared and backed with 3M adhesive by our supplier in Northampton UK.

APPLICATIONS
Kitchen knives There are an enormous range of differing shapes and sizes when it comes to kitchen knives. All of them can be sharpened on the KS without issue. Both Steel and Stainless Steel knives can be sharpened. - However the KS is not suitable for Ceramic knives.

Chef knives
Due to the depth and length of the blade, this is one of the easiest knives to get started with using the FTS KS. A common tendency in the kitchen is to have a favourite knife that's used for practically every task, most common for this is the Chef's knife.

Serrated knives
The tips of the serration is where blunting usually occurs - being the first part of the blade that comes in contact with what's being cut first. We've had excellent results re-sharpening bread knives etc using the FTS KS however the trough of the serration remains untouched.

Boning knives and Small paring Knives
All knives with narrower blades can easily be sharpened using the KS. We've found that the worktop technique giving a better sight of the knife to strike plate is the easiest way to gain a fine edge.

Snap off blade Knives
Taking recycling to another level is to re-sharpen "snap off" bladed knives. A seriously fine edge can be created and regained time and time again using the FTS KS.
