Are your knives in need of sharpening?

The **Wicked Edge Obsidian WE66** is a compact sharpening system from Wicked Edge in black finish. Compact enough to easily take with you and with the precision you have grown accustomed to from bigger Wicked Edge sharpening systems.

## Wicked Edge Obsidian features:

### The clamp

Let’s start with the clamp. It was updated to make sure you can secure different styles of blades. The clamp has three ‘fingers’ compared to the massive clamp that was a part of the old Wicked Edge GO. As such, the clamp is a little more flexible, enabling it to hold different blades. This clamp even holds flat-grind blades and tapered blades. Attaching the blade is also a lot easier thanks to the lever, which you usually only see on the more expensive Wicked Edge sharpening systems.

### New Angle Slides

The so-called Angle Slides were also completely updated. It still moves smoothly through the base. Checking out the sharpening angle, however, is a lot easier thanks to the arrow in the Angle Slides that point to the degree gauge. Additionally, the mechanism that secures the guide rods to the Angle Slides has also been completely updated. Place the guide rods on the Angle Glides and secure the screw. It secures the guiding rod. As such, removing or replacing the rods is not only easy, it also helps you determine the resistance. You can adjust the resistance to your liking for an even better sharpening experience.

## Wicked Edge Obsidian

The Wicked Edge Obsidian is similar to the Wicked Edge Go sharpening systems. As with the Go, the Obsidian brings the Wicked Edge sharpening systems back to the basics. Just the knife clamp, the guiding rods with adjustable angle and a combination sharpening stone. You don't need anything else to sharpen your knives to razor-sharpness.

## Wicked Edge Obsidian sharpening stones

The Wicked Edge Obsidian includes two double-sided diamond-coated sharpening stones with grit sizes 200/600. These are American grit sizes, so they are finer than you are used to from Japanese stones with the same number. With the 200 side you can sharpen blunt knives. With these diamond-coated sharpening stones you can quickly restore the edge of your knife. The 600 grit side refines the cutting edge. 

A big advantage of Wicked Edge is that you can expand your set with other stones from the Wicked Edge range. So in time, you can achieve a razor-sharp edge even with a Wicked Edge Obsidian!

## Setting the Wicked Edge Obsidian sharpening angle

Both guide rods are infinitely adjustable in angle. From approx. 13 degrees up to 31 degrees depending on the height of your knife. You loosen the knob and simply slide it through the profile. Using a marker, mark the edge to then find the right angle. Read more about [sharpening angles and how to find them using the 'marker trick' here](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

The Wicked Edge Obsidian comes with an iron C-clamp. With this, you clamp it to a table or worktop so that it remains securely in place. The Wicked Edge Obsidian is also enhanced with two countersunk screw holes. These allow you to screw the Wicked Edge to your workbench or the Wicked Edge Aluminium base permanently.
