Overview

Built for hunters and outdoorsmen who already use the Ken Onion Edition Work Sharp Mark 2, this attachment expands the sharpener’s capability for more aggressive blade work. It uses larger 1" x 18" flexible abrasive belts and offers edge angle adjustment from 10° to 35°, along with three convex edge profile settings. The 90° grind plate and platen are designed for grinding knife spines or reprofiling blades, while the accessory format means the sharpener itself is not included.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed specifically for the Ken Onion Edition Work Sharp Mark 2 Sharpener (742104), so compatibility is limited to that system.
