Product Details
Made in Germany, the revolutionary HORL 2 sharpener takes the guesswork out of the most tricky aspect of using a whetstone: getting the sharpening angle right. It’s also exponentially quicker, as there is no soaking needed. There are two parts to the HORL 2: an angle support bar and a roller. The knife, blade side up, attaches to the angle support bar, which is set to 20°. The knife stays in place thanks to strong magnets, while you move the roller back and forth on the other side of the blade a few times. The roller has two sides: a diamond disc for sharpening and a stainless steel disc for honing. Due to the fixed discs, stainless steel honing stone, and single-sided angle support set to 20°, the Horl 2 Cruise can only be used on Western-style knives. (To sharpen Japanese-style knives or use interchangeable discs, see our Horl 2 or Horl 2 Pro knife sharpeners.)
Please note: HORL products can only be shipped within the UK
Why we love it
'The HORL 2 Cruise is quick, neat, and effective way to sharpen Western-style knives. It’s like having the ease, speed and definition of a pull-through sharpener, but the versatility and relative gentleness of a whetstone.'Specifications & Care

About The Brand
HORL 1993
Timo and Otmar Horl, the father-and-son duo behind HORL 1993 had a singular vision: bring professional standards of knife sharpening to the home cook, simplified. What began at a home cellar is now a fully-staffed workshop in Germany’s Black Forest where every aspect of the manufacturing process is done locally, from steel melding to laser engraving.
