HORL at Design & Grace
HORL Magnifier
3.5x magnifier for inspecting the grinding pattern and burr on a sharpened edge
The HORL Magnifier gives you a close view of the knife edge so you can see what is happening during sharpening instead of judging progress only by feel. Its 3.5x magnification makes the grinding pattern visible and helps you check whether a burr remains or the edge has reached the finish you want.

HORL 3 Magnifier
Most Useful Between Stages
This is especially useful when establishing a new angle or working through HORL’s finer whetstone stages, where changes to the bevel become increasingly subtle. The magnifier does not change the sharpening process. It simply gives you a better way to inspect the result.
HORL 3 Magnifier
Glass Lens, Brass Body
Made in the Black Forest, the compact HORL Magnifier uses a real glass lens in a chrome-plated brass body, giving it the weight and permanence expected from the rest of the HORL sharpening system.
