Sharpeners — Victorinox

The Sharpener collection by Victorinox brings together the manual sharpening accessories designed by the Swiss cutler to maintain straight-edge blades on a daily basis. These compact sharpeners offer a simple, safe solution, suited to home use as well as professional kitchens.

What makes Victorinox sharpeners distinctive

Victorinox builds its sharpeners around a V-shaped ceramic-disc plate system: you simply pull the blade between the two discs to restore the edge quickly. The synthetic body provides a good grip and stays light, unlike traditional sharpening steels, which require technique.

• V-shaped ceramic-disc plates to resharpen straight blades
• Synthetic body with ergonomic non-slip handle
• Available in several colours depending on the reference (grey, black)

The most popular pieces in the Sharpener collection

A few formats account for most of the purchases on AZ boutique.

• Grey synthetic sharpener (ref. 7.8715): the best-selling reference of the collection, for regular home use
• Black synthetic sharpener (ref. 7.8721.3): the same ceramic-disc mechanism with a black finish to match contemporary kitchens

Choosing within the Sharpener collection

Why is this collection distinctive?

Victorinox is a leading Swiss cutler: its sharpeners are designed to efficiently maintain straight kitchen and pocket-knife blades while staying accessible to non-professionals. The V-shaped ceramic-disc mechanism prevents incorrect angles that would damage the edge.

Are there several versions?

Yes. The Victorinox sharpeners in this collection come in grey and black. Both references use different abrasive materials (tungsten carbide for 7.8715, ceramic discs for 7.8721.3): only the body colour differs. Pick the one that fits your kitchen style.

Is this sharpener suitable for serrated blades?

No. The sharpeners in this collection are designed for straight blades only (kitchen knives, paring knives, Swiss Army knives with straight blades). A serrated blade must be resharpened with a dedicated tool.

How do I use the Victorinox sharpener?

Place the sharpener on a stable surface, hold the handle with one hand and draw the blade from heel to tip between the ceramic discs, without excessive pressure. A few regular passes (1-2 times per month depending on use) are enough to keep a clean edge.
