What it does
- Sharpen dull knives on any ceramic mug rim, so you save money on expensive sharpening tools.
- Protects your fingers with a safe grip design, so you sharpen without cuts or scrapes.
- Prints upright with no support needed, so your print finishes faster and cleaner.
- Adjustable design works with different mug sizes, so one sharpener fits your whole kitchen.
- Designed from the US and made to last, so you get a tool that works right away.
Your kitchen knives can stay sharp without buying fancy gear. This 3D-printed sharpener lets you use the rough bottom rim of any old ceramic mug as a sharpening surface. You just slide your blade through the guide, and the mug does the work.
The design prints straight up without any support material, so you waste less plastic and get cleaner prints. The grip keeps your fingers safe while you sharpen, and the device works with most standard mug sizes. Now your dull knives get sharp again, and your old mugs become useful.
