The housing includes a first mounting location, the height adjusting mechanism is movably connected to the first mounting location, the height adjusting mechanism includes a lifting body, and the lifting body can move up and down relative to the first mounting location. The cutter sharpener further includes a degree indicating mechanism fixedly connected to the lifting body.

A blade sharpening device comprises a clamp for holding a blade in a fixed position relative to the device, an elongate slide member having a lower end adapted for sliding movement on a flat surface and an elongate support arm having a first end mechanically connected to the slide member. The elongate support arm extends at a fixed angle relative to the slide member and has a second end with the clamp provided thereon.

A multi-rod hand-held sharpener. In some embodiments, the sharpener has a handle with opposing first and second ends, an outer grip surface, and a guide surface adjacent the first end extending at a selected angle with respect to a central axis. A first abrasive rod is adapted to extend from the first end of the handle in a selected direction parallel to the central axis and having a first outer abrasive surface with a first abrasiveness level, the first outer abrasive surface extending at a first non-orthogonal angle with respect to the guide surface. A second abrasive rod is adapted to extend from the first end of the handle in the selected direction and having a second outer abrasive surface with a different, second abrasiveness level. The second outer abrasive surface extends at a different, second non-orthogonal angle with respect to the guide surface.

A device for sharpening bladed tools comprising a body defining an elongate handle portion adapted to be gripped in one hand by a user, the body having a forwardly projecting support member curved or angled downwardly with respect to the handle portion and fitted with a sharpening element at or near the end thereof, wherein the support member comprises a pair of spaced support arms extending generally parallel to the longitudinal extent of the handle portion, the support arms being positioned to respective sides of the sharpening element and defining an aperture therebetween adapted to accommodate a blade or anvil of a tool during sharpening of a counterpart tool blade.

An acute angle blade sharpening apparatus and method for sharpening blades is configured to sharpen the edge and bevel of a blade at the specific acute angles between 21° and 23°, or about 22° and 23°. The apparatus has a base member forming multiple elongated depressions oriented at 22° and 23°. Multiple elongated sharpening members are fixedly mounted in the depressions. The blade is oriented perpendicular to the first side of the base member and drawn against the sharpening members, to engage at the desired 22° and 23° sharpening angles. A leveling instrument attaches to the blade to verify the blade is oriented at the desired angles. A leveling instrument cavity stores the leveling instrument and fastener. Springs retain the sharpening members in the cavity of the base member when not in use. A clamp fastens the base member to a mounting surface for enhanced stability.

The present utility model provides a cutter sharpener including a housing, a height adjusting mechanism and a cutter clamping mechanism mounted on the housing, and a grinding mechanism rotatably connected to the height adjusting mechanism. The housing includes a first mounting location, the height adjusting mechanism is movably connected to the first mounting location, the height adjusting mechanism includes a lifting body, and the lifting body can move up and down relative to the first mounting location. The cutter sharpener further includes a degree indicating mechanism fixedly connected to the lifting body.

A knife sharpening device has two sharpening rods which are pivotally arranged on a base and arranged in a V-shape relative to one another to allow insertion of a knife therebetween. The sharpening rods each comprise at least one sharpening insert. The sharpening rods are held in a rest position at a predetermined distance from one another in their V-shaped arrangement by the force of a respective spring. The sharpening rods are spreadable apart in a sharpening position by insertion of the knife upon contact of the knife with the sharpening inserts against the force of the spring. The sharpening rods are held by a single holding point on the base.

A blade sharpening device comprises a clamp for holding a blade in a fixed position relative to the device, an elongate slide member having a lower end adapted for sliding movement on a flat surface and an elongate support arm having a first end mechanically connected to the slide member. The elongate support arm extends at a fixed angle relative to the slide member and has a second end with the clamp provided thereon.

A grinder/polisher apparatus is disclosed, the apparatus comprising first and second sets of grinding elements (2, 3) facing each other under an angle () thus forming between the sets of grinding elements a V-groove in which the cutting edge of a knife is insertable for movement upon grinding, wherein the grinding elements are supported in holders (5, 6). The grinding elements (2, 3) are pivotally arranged in the holders (5, 6) about axes (R, R) the inclinations of which correspond with the opening angle () of the V-groove.

A compact angle reference apparatus comprises one angle guide; and a base; wherein the one angle guide can be disposed on the base; wherein the base can be disposed on a surface adjacent to a sharpening tool; wherein the one angle guide further comprises a frame having an insert side and a hinge side, a lid having a guide surface, an insert end, and a hinge end opposite to the insert end, a set of hinge pins connecting the hinge side of the frame and the hinge end of the lid in a rotatable manner, an insert having a predetermined height, wherein the insert is movable, wherein the insert is configured to be erected between the insert end of the lid and the insert side of the frame, wherein the lid and the frame can form an angle by the predetermined height of the insert.
