Consistent sharpening is all about angle control—especially for beginners. Our Knife Sharpening Guide Clip is ideal for most knives, but smaller blades require a tailored solution. This compact version is designed specifically for petty knives, sujihiki, paring knives, and other slim blades. Just clip it onto the spine, and it’ll help you maintain the correct sharpening angle from start to finish—ideal for learning or refining your technique.

• Ideal for smaller knives: Best suited for thinner, smaller blades with a minimum blade length of 90 mm and a width of 27 mm at the heel.
• Gentle on your blade: Soft inner lining prevents marks or scratches on your knife during use.
• Glides smoothly: The ceramic outer surface lets the clip slide easily over the stone without damaging it.
• Can be used on Western knives too: While the clip will still work, be aware that softer steels (like German or French knives, <60 HRC) are usually sharpened at a slightly wider angle (~20°), so the edge may be more delicate if sharpened at 16°.
