There is nothing wrong with it, but looking at the videos of the Gen4, the improvements are quite obvious. Being quite OCD, I had to, late at night take the next step. The main advantages I see are a slightly better micro adjust system and a more robustly engineered pivoting mechanism for the stone rods. Increasing the angle to strop will lrss likely to be missed which can(did) result in strops being sliced a bit. I will let my son have my Obsidian which is a great sharpener in its own right compared to pull thru and electric kitchen sharpeners advertised as the best on the internet. Will update my observations, soon. I’ll have to dull some knives over the next few days.
This adapter kit was exactly what was missing from my we66 to get low angles on chef knives. I knew going in i was going to need more than the adapter. But the low angle kit made everything a one stop shop and I was in business. Not only thay I’ve been spoiled by the quantity of anything wicked edge makes. Everything built to last lifetimes
The wicked Edge system has elevated my knife sharpening to an all mew level!! I should have bought this system years ago, Thank You Wicked Edge.
