Page 24: Lansky Catalog 2013

In 1979, a young man in the cutlery trade who also ran a sporting goods store, harnessed the secrets of the professional knife sharpeners and developed a system that, for the first time, enabled the average person to properly sharpen a knife quickly, easily and safely. He knew that the real secret to proper knife care is maintaining a good bevel and the right sharpening angle on each knife at all times so it is always ready for the kind of tasks it was designed to perform. That’s when Arthur Lansky LeVine, founder and president of Lansky Sharpeners®, created, patented and marketed his first Controlled-Angle Knife Sharpening System.

At the heart of the original Lansky Sharpening System was an ambidextrous knife clamp made of aircraft aluminum which had two banks of pre-drilled holes that acted as guides for the sharpening hones. Once the knife is attached to the clamp, the user can bevel or sharpen both sides of a blade to the same, precise angles. The system proved to be so well made, so easy to use and produced such superior results for people with little previous knife sharpening know-how or experience that they have become a standard throughout the world.

In addition to creating a broader line of Controlled-Angle Sharpening Systems during the 1980s, Lansky also developed a number of accessory products, like mounts for the sharpening system, specialty sharpeners such as those for sharpening serrated blades, and unique pocket sharpeners such as the Mini-Sharpener and Dog Bone Sharpener. Next came a series of pocket-sized sharpeners, including specialized serrated blade sharpeners that work to sharpen the proprietary serrations used on the blades of some of the major knife manufacturers. Before Lansky developed its series of serrated blade sharpeners, these blades could not be sharpened by traditional means.

In 1991, Lansky Sharpeners acquired the Crock Stick® brand, together with its full line of ceramic rod sharpeners, many of which incorporated a two-stage sharpening system that is a variant of the Lansky Controlled-Angle Sharpening System.

Lansky’s search for new ways to do a better sharpening job then led to the development of a series of tool sharpeners that sharpen axes, hatchets, lawnmower blades and even shovels, hoes, machetes and scythes. Always on the lookout for innovation through new technologies, Lansky first introduced the tungsten-carbide Quick Edge sharpener in the early 1990s, and then followed it up with the Deluxe Quick Edge in 2004 and the Quick Fix, a small, pocket-sized sharpener featuring tungsten carbide sharpening rods on one side and ceramic sharpening rods on the other.

As the Lansky firm celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2004, it launched a whole new line of sharpeners featuring diamond sharpening rods, folding diamond paddles, diamond pads and diamond benchstones. Lansky now offers the most complete selection of knife and tool sharpeners.

Each year, new and improved products have been introduced, each with the purpose of fulfilling a specific task, making other tasks easier, or enabling the customer to use edged products more conveniently and comfortably with greater safety, and to store them at home or carry them on trips. This year, as in previous years, Lansky will be introducing new and improved knife and tool sharpening products at major trade shows around the world.

Almost from the start-up date of Lansky Sharpeners, the company has aggressively pursued national and international advertising programs and marketing & distribution practices designed to place the Lansky product line before the widest range of consumers. The result is that Lansky Sharpeners have become the name most recognized and accepted by consumers worldwide. Printed in USA
