Work Sharp WSKTS MK.2 electric sharpener (WSKTS2-I)

Work Sharp WSKTS Mk.2 Electric Sharpener

The Work Sharp WSKTS Mk.2 is an upgraded version of the WSKTS electric sharpener. It is designed to sharpen all types of knives and tools with greater convenience, better control, and faster performance.

Enhanced Design
Based on the success of the first-generation model, the WSKTS Mk.2 offers improved functionality and ease of sharpening. With its flexible abrasive belts, it can sharpen smooth blades, serrated and curved blades, tanto blades, filleting knives, skinning hooks, scissors, axes, lawnmower blades, and many other edged tools.

Key Improvements from Generation I

• Two operating modes: fast mode for grinding and standard mode for fine sharpening

• Upgraded guide with two sharpening angles (20° and 25°) with leather inserts

• Integrated 65° guide for sharpening scissors

Two Operating Modes
The two-speed motor provides a low-speed mode for precise control when sharpening knives and a high-speed mode for grinding hard or heavy tools such as axes, cleavers, and lawnmower blades. This ensures full control over the sharpening process, from grinding and burr removal to polishing and finishing.

Guaranteed Angle Retention
The Mk.2 uses a single guide with two sharpening angles (20° and 25°) instead of separate interchangeable guides. This makes it convenient to sharpen kitchen and outdoor knives while avoiding misplaced guides. Leather inserts protect blades from scratches and gently polish the grind. Lower guides help maintain the original blade profile, and the flexible pivoting design ensures the full blade length is sharpened. The guide can also be removed, allowing sharpening of large tools like axes and mower blades.

Sharpening Capabilities
The Work Sharp WSKTS Mk.2 can sharpen:

• Pocket knives and everyday carry knives

• Hunting knives with skinning hooks

• Large outdoor knives

• Serrated knives

• Kitchen knives (chef’s knife, Santoku, utility knife, meat knife, etc.)

• Filleting knives

• Single-bevel knives

• Axes and cleavers

• Spades and secateurs

• Household scissors (with the dedicated 65° guide)

Professional Belt Sharpening
Knife makers use grinders and flexible belts for professional sharpening. With the WSKTS Mk.2, the same method is available at home, ensuring precise and repeatable sharpness. Abrasive belts included in the set allow fast and accurate sharpening depending on the blade’s condition:

• 2 coarse P80 aluminum oxide belts for edge repair and re-profiling

• 2 medium P220 ceramic oxide belts for standard sharpening

• 2 fine 6000-grit silicon carbide belts for polishing and finishing

Scissor Sharpening Guide
The dedicated 65° scissor guide restores sharpness quickly and professionally, ensuring symmetrical edges every time—something difficult to achieve when sharpening by hand.
