Victorlnox blade angle?

[jjdbike]

Hello friends,

I want to use my Hone sharpener for the first time. I am preparing a 2 pork butt smoke. Going to use my Victorlnox curved boneing knife.

Should I assume the blade angle is 20 degrees?

Respecfully,
JD

Never mind, I just found out that it’s just under 15 degrees.
Thanks!

jjdbike I am curious where you found 15*. The Victorinox website sharpening guide shows 15* (or 30* total) for slicing knives and 20* (or 40* total) for boning knives. It is kind of weird as I had read previously that all were 20*.

Hello Geezer,
Honestly just a random forum I dug up on Google. If that’s the official site, I will go with that.
Thanks,

My Chefs Choice 465 sharpener is for 20 degree angle knives. Almost all my knives are Victorinox and it puts a razor sharp edge on them. Even on a new knife just a few passes will make it very sharp. I don’t feel like I’m changing the angle with just that small amount of sharpening making them so sharp. My granton edge slicer is so sharp it will without any effort slice through 4 layers of dish cloth and cut my finger badly when I wash it. I treat it very carefully now.

I have that knife, and I know exactly what you mean, it's almost too sharp. I call mine 'The Lightsaber'
