HORL 3 Knife Sharpener

Two Angles, Held Securely

The magnetic angle support positions the blade at either 15° or 20°. The 15° side is intended for fine blades made from hard steels such as quality carbon and Damascus steel, while the 20° side creates a more durable edge for European chef’s knives, outdoor knives, and pocket knives. HORL’s Grip Pad and strong magnets help maintain a secure hold throughout sharpening.

HORL 3 Knife Sharpener

Diamond Grinding and Ceramic Honing

The standard diamond grinding disc handles the initial sharpening. HORL’s block diamond construction removes up to 80% more steel than the HORL 2 version and produces a more uniform grinding pattern. Turn to the ceramic honing disc afterward to remove the burr and smooth the finished cutting edge.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Is the Walnut HORL 3 functionally different from the Oak version?

No. Both versions use the same 15° and 20° angle support, diamond grinding disc, ceramic honing disc, HORL Grip Pad, and Quick Lock system. The difference is the solid wood used for the sharpener body.

Which sharpening angle should I use?

Use 15° for fine blades made from hard steels such as quality carbon or Damascus steel. Use 20° when you want a more robust edge on European chef’s knives, outdoor knives, and pocket knives.

Can the HORL 3 sharpen hard knife steels?

Yes. HORL states that the standard diamond grinding disc can sharpen knives across hardness grades.

Are the grinding discs interchangeable?

Yes. HORL Quick Lock lets you twist off the included discs and install compatible HORL 3 accessories for additional sharpening and refining options.

Where is the HORL 3 Walnut made?

The HORL 3 is made in the Black Forest, Germany. HORL dries, machines, and inspects the solid wood during production, and natural grain variation makes each walnut body visually distinct.
