The first cut decides whether the bark holds. With Vulkanus your knife is sharp again: three to five pulls with light pressure, no angle to hold, no practice. The bread knife too.

The moment of truth

Nobody photographs your thermometer. They photograph the first slice.

  1. 01Bark

    The bark tears.

    A blunt blade presses instead of cutting. The bark breaks and the slice falls apart.

  2. 02Honing steel

    Realigning is not sharpening.

    A smooth honing steel only realigns the edge. Once the blade is blunt, it cannot bring the sharpness back.

  3. 03Stopgap

    The bread knife on the brisket.

    A serrated edge saws its way through. And who actually sharpens the bread knife?

The solution

Sharp while the meat rests.

How it works.

  • You don't set an angle.

    The device sets it and covers 11 to 21°, from European to Japanese blades.

  • Three to five pulls.

    With light pressure. Sharpening and honing in one pass, with no heat build-up and no scratches.

  • The bread knife too.

    Straight, serrated, micro-serrated: one device for the whole drawer.

  • Spare parts, always.

    You replace the sharpening elements yourself in seconds.

All three share the same core: straight, serrated and micro-serrated, 11–21°. The difference is the material and the mounting.

Quick answers.

Will it ruin my expensive knives?

No, as long as you pull with light pressure: three to five strokes, and the device holds the angle. That removes almost no material, with no heat build-up and no scratches. More pressure isn't needed. And if it doesn't convince you: 14-day returns.

Isn't this just a pull-through sharpener?

Yes, you pull the blade through. The difference: the patented original sharpens and hones in one pass, straight blades as well as serrated and micro-serrated edges. The device sets the angle, with no heat build-up and no scratches. Try it for 14 days on your own knives.

Why not a roller sharpener?

Vulkanus sharpens straight blades, serrated edges and micro-serrations in the same device, your bread knife included. You set no angle and need no accessories.

Isn't my honing steel enough?

A smooth honing steel only realigns the edge. Once the blade is blunt, only sharpening helps. Vulkanus sharpens and hones in one pass: three to five pulls with light pressure.

Does it work with a bread knife too?

Yes. Straight blades, serrated edges and micro-serrations all in the same device.

How fast is it?

Three to five pulls with light pressure and you're done. That fits into any rest.

Which model is right for me?

The VG2 Professional is solid stainless steel and stands heavy and secure. The VG2 Classic is plastic and dishwasher-safe. The Crown mounts on a wall or table, or sticks on with its suction cup.
