Do not waste your money on above Catra device, it is not anything that you would expect from our English Cousins. I, sold the one I had for 25.00$ many years ago.
At the least move up to the Catra that our cousin from Australia uses. May be about 700/800$ plus or minus.
Edgepal's Chef (Thomas) for sure is one of the best guided sharpeners (maybe the best). Nothing could be more accurate for reading the blades edge angle or angles with the help of a red marking felt tip, and possibly to speed things up use angle cube.
Earlier today I made (about 10 AM) two telephone calls to Grit O Matic in Cartersville, Georgia USA and left a message with my tele number - at this time I have had no answer (now it's 2:27 PM here in Louisiana).
About 10:30 AM sent Email on their site - stating that I wanted to purchase one of their "blade edge angle meters". No response, none.
My tele calls may have been rerouted to somewhere in this World other than Georgia USA? Not the service that I expected.
