The sharpener works very well, although since it removes quite a lot of material from the blade, it’s best to keep it handy as an emergency solution – it’s good to carry it in your pocket when travelling or use it when you need to quickly restore a very dull knife. Just a few strokes are enough to sharpen a heavily worn tool.
Lansky Blade Medic Sharpener
Compact 4-in-1 sharpener designed for quick and efficient knife sharpening. Integrated with two sharpening guides, a diamond rod, and a ceramic stone. Specially designed slots help maintain a consistent sharpening angle of 22.5°, which matches the optimal cutting edge geometry. Heavily dulled blades can be easily restored using the tungsten carbide slot, while the second slot with ceramic rods is intended for daily sharpening and edge smoothing.
Diamond rod and ceramic stone
The diamond rod with 600 grit and approximately 6 cm in length allows sharpening of both plain and serrated blades, as well as curved profiles like recurve or kukri. The ceramic stone with 1000 grit is suitable for serrated edges and — when used traditionally — is excellent for daily maintenance of smooth blade edges.

Purchased in a physical store. Solidly made, it has a practical hole for a lanyard. It is the right size. It is great for quickly touching up the blade if it is not badly damaged. For very blunt or damaged knives, larger, stationary tools such as sharpening stones will work better. As a tool for quick, occasional sharpening, it is very effective. It is compact and does not take up much space. I use it at work outside the home when I suddenly need to touch up a blade or simply for relaxation. The sharpener works effectively and does not cause any irritation.

I'm not a fan of "pull-through" sharpeners, as they can quickly dull the blade. However, I don't have room in my backpack or pockets for sharpening stones, nor do I want to mess around with them outdoors, so in emergency situations, such a sharpener is worth recommending as a "lifeline" for knives. It's small, lightweight, and offers different sharpening modes, which is why it's worth having with you.
-
The sharpener is worth its price, it does its job very well and sharpens knives effectively. It's small, so it's easy to find a place for it, and sharpening is easier when you rest it on something stable. I definitely recommend it.
-
The quality-to-price ratio is very favourable. 5-10 strokes (depending on the knife condition) are enough to cut through paper. Small, compact and handy – fits everywhere. Highly recommended!
-
I use the Lansky Blade Medic sharpener and I am satisfied. It is handy and compact, works superbly in the field to sharpen smooth, serrated and hooked knives. It is solid and durable, great for everyday use.
-
Fantastic sharpener, works well with different types of knives. Compact, you can always have it with you. I managed to restore even old blades with its help.
-
Handy, small sharpener, ideal for quickly sharpening a knife in the field. Its small weight and size are its biggest advantages, and it is very simple to use.
-
Lansky Blade Medic is a compact, durable 4-in-1 sharpener. Quickly and easily restores sharpness to knives, both in the field and at home. It is easy to use and very handy – ideal for small blade repairs.
-
A very useful sharpener, I always keep it in my backpack during trips and it has already come in handy many times when I suddenly needed to sharpen a knife. I definitely recommend it.
-
Great for everyday carry and emergency sharpening. Lightweight, compact, but still copes even with larger blades. Within moments you can get a knife to working sharpness; anyone can manage.
-
Light and functional. The price in relation to quality is great. With this tool I have sharpened many different knives. Maybe it's not too comfortable, but it does its job well and isn’t heavy.
-
A small sharpener, ideal for quick sharpening outdoors. Don’t expect miracles, but it’s worth having with you. Be careful with the aggressive carbides – they remove a lot of steel from soft blades. On the plus side, the metal rod – it sharpens serrated edges well.
-
Very small, yet it does the job. Considering its price and size, it's very universal. It is suitable as equipment for both a backpack and EDC.
-
Very practical both at home and outside thanks to its small size and very light weight. At this price, it’s an exceptionally worthwhile purchase.
