MORE POSSIBILITIES. MORE SHARPNESS.

The HORL®2 sharpener offers maximum versatility to satisfy individual requirements. With interchangeable grinding wheels, a 15° grinding angle for filigree and 20° grinding angle for robust sharpness, it offers more possibilities for sharpening knives. The diamond grinding disc and ceramic honing disc guarantee some impressive results. The newly developed assembly design incorporating ball bearings give it a smooth rolling feel.

DIAMOND GRINDING DISC

With the HORL® standard diamond grinding disc, a high-quality sharpening result is quickly possible without the use of water. The industrial diamonds in the disc are suitable for steels of any hardness used for knives and ensure efficient, precise results. In addition, they produce a grinding pattern that is equivalent to the "ex works" grind of a high-quality German kitchen knife. Used properly the HORL® standard diamond grinding disc should not need replacing.

CERAMIC HONING DISC

After use of the HORL® diamond grinding disc, the ceramic honing disc further refines the grinding result. Its integrated grooves ensure a smooth knife edge and eliminate any loose metal particles that remain.

20° GRINDING ANGLE FOR ROBUST SHARPNESS

The 20° grinding angle provides new sharpness and a robust cutting edge in a short time. This means the knife retains its sharpness for a long time and is suitable for a wide variety of everyday uses in the kitchen. It also gives many outdoor pocket knives a sturdy edge and excellent sharpness for everyday use.

15° GRINDING ANGLE FOR FILIGREE SHARPNESS

With the 15° grinding angle, particularly fine blades made of Damascus or high-quality carbon steel can be given filigree sharpness. Such knives can be sharpened very finely and they retain their stability.

EFFICIENCY WITH STYLE

Industrial diamonds are considered one of the most durable and efficient abrasives available. The monocrystalline diamonds we use are harder than any knife steel. In an electroplating process around 55 % of the diamonds in the HORL® Diamond Standard are firmly embedded on a nickel plate. Their surface, which is rough to begin, is refined during the first grinding procedure and it retains this condition from then on.

HORL® S-PAD FOR NON-SLIP VERSATILITY WHILE GRINDING

The combination of strong neodymium magnets and the HORL® silicone S-Pad ensures the blade is securely held by the magnetic angle support. Due to the anti-slip properties of the S-Pad, even narrow blades can be sharpened consistently and reproducibly at the required height

A GUT FEELING AS RECIPE FOR SUCCESS

Our story began with a good instinct and a lot of imagination. And ultimately the gut feeling that something great can come out of a simple idea. Because no one was asking for a novel knife sharpener.

Timo's and Otmar's design and construction skills initially gave rise to the first generation of sharpeners, but they subsequently moved the business from their cellar workshop and the company now occupies two office locations in Freiburg.

Together with our growing team, we continue to write the HORL® story and are delighted to inspire more and more people nationally and internationally.

THE HORL® SHARPENER

No one wants to sharpen knives, but everyone wants sharp knives. Well almost. Actually, we want both! The new sharpeners from HORL® convince with their stylish design, easy use and impressive sharpening results.

FROM THE BLACK FOREST TO KITCHENS AROUND THE WORLD.

We love products that function, are stylish and feel good every time they are used. With our HORL® range, we aim to evoke experiences, ignite enthusiasm and provide wow moments. We want to enrich people's lives and become an established feature in the kitchens of the world.

WITH A PASSION FOR UNSTINTING QUALITY

With our sharpeners, we want to make it possible for everyone to sharpen knives so that using them becomes a real pleasure. Our aim is no-compromise when it comes to quality and to create products that will serve their owners for a long time.

The „HORL® - Principle“

Position the knife. Grind. Hone. This is the simple grinding principle of the HORL® Sharpener. A new knife sharpening method is being redefined with the rotating diamond grinding disc which is guided gently along the cutting edge with a constant grinding angle. This combination guarantees an especially even and reproducible sharpening result for your favourite knives.

ALWAYS A CONSTANT GRINDING ANGLE

The grinding angle is the key factor in knife sharpening. The more consistently it is reproduced, the more precise and lasting the results are. Once sharpened, the knife is always positioned at exactly the same sharpening angle by the Angle Support which ensures fast resharpening, minimum material removal and a long service life for kitchen knives.

Securely held with the HORL® 2 Angle Support

The combination of strong neodymium magnets and the HORL® S-Pad make it possible to securely fix the knife during grinding. Strengthened by the anti-slip effect of the S-Pads, even small blades of any desired height can be consistently and reproducibly sharpened.

PRECISION FROM THE BLACK FOREST

The HORL® 1993 headquarters is located in our German hometown of Freiburg im Breisgau. All of our partner companies from wood and metal production to laser engraving and final assembly are all located close by in the Black Forest. Short distances and direct communication guarantee the best quality of all components.
