TSPROF Blitz, Blitz 360 and K03. Likes and differences information.

[@georgeyoung4292]

These are awesome men😉🙏 Definitely the best sharpeners on the market..

[@robertdewalt8711]

For home use I ordered TSPROF Blitz Pro Sharpening kit and I should be receiving around 17 February.

How’s the bitz so far

[@robertdewalt8711]

@@garyd395 . It allowed me to get knife edge to 90 g on BESS C scale. I like how secure knife it held knife. I would call it the Lamborghini of manual sharpener but not at that price. The diamond plates are very efficient.

[@taylorhickman84]

The 360 upgrade is a must, also if you flip the bracket upside down it can be used as a thickness compensator like they have on the Kadet model. My only complaint would be the clamps, they tend to pull the blade off center slightly.

[@joshculver1975]

Very helpful video Scott.

[@GunnysSharptalk]

Thanks

[@JohnDoe-zb7dz]

I wish I could stumble across some comparisons with Jende Industries jig which I really have my eye on. The micro drive looks really appealing to me but I'd prefer the one that has the longer lasting flip locking mechanism. I've done wore out two flip plates on my KME. And good customer service is a plus. Sadly Jende has issues in this department. I'm getting close to buying an upgrade from my KME. I'll still use it for smaller and lighter knives. Thanks.

[@GunnysSharptalk]

I have an unboxing review of the original JIGS. They have made some updates since then

[@GunnysSharptalk]

I didn’t get a chance to do a side by side comparison

@@GunnysSharptalk Tom told me months ago that he was soon to release a new version to succeed V2.O. I haven't heard anything since. So it looks like the ko3 is what I'll get.

[@dougrising936]

I just pulled the trigger on the K03 and I'd like to know what other set of clamps I need to sharpen items like Case Folders and other Thin spine folders. Please suggest another set of stones to sharpen high HRC number knives and possibly ceramic knives.

[@GunnysSharptalk]

Get you one of these for small knives. www.sharpeningsupplies.com/Tormek-Small-Knife-Jig-P470.aspx?gclid=Cj0KCQjwuaiXBhCCARIsAKZLt3ladOfIqLtC05BkCPfxEiHzh0G7dNV5iRcj0RvjLhoFTz-DD0iRQ1kaAmCGEALw_wcB

[@shaunharrison9618]

I have the Kadet and am very happy with it. I have been using the set of diamond stones that were included in the kit and they have done okay but I am wanting to get a better set. It seems like the Venev Orion are the ones to get but Gritomatic is out of stock. Do you know anywhere else to purchase them or recommend a different set?

[@GunnysSharptalk]

Try Hapstone. They did have some

[@John-xk7uo]

Could you show a picture or video of your single filet clamp with the reinforcement springs on it please

[@GunnysSharptalk]

I will if I haven’t packed it yet. We’re getting ready to move

[@MrKevin00912]

Im feeling this is better than kadet if already have k03

[@GunnysSharptalk]

I think it is. I believe the Kadet is more in between the Blitz and K03

[@razorhaven66]

Do you plan on getting one of the new TSPROF Kadet sharpeners to use and review?

[@GunnysSharptalk]

I am going to try to review one if I can get my hands on one. I am behind on reviews and videos right now because of work and trying to bring some new products to the market

[@southerncouncil4136]

So the K03 is going to be better all around for 8” - 10” blades then correct?

[@GunnysSharptalk]

That is correct

[@southerncouncil4136]

@@GunnysSharptalk thank you 👍

[@jeffro1245]

The angle needle is adjustable. Once you use the angle cube to set it then its dead on. Using an angle cube is a waste of time

[@GunnysSharptalk]

An angle cube is more accurate. Stone thickness compensators get close, but you can still be off by up to 0.3 degrees which is fine for most people. I prefer the accuracy. If I don’t want an exact to at least 0.05 degrees then I will just freehand sharpen. It’s faster.

[@soullessone_edc6226]

I do believe the blitz 360 is the system I'm going to end up going with

[@GunnysSharptalk]

Lmk what you think of the system after using it for a bit.

[@jeffstoney6055]

Which is a better system, the TSPROF Blitz 360 or KME ??

[@georgeyoung4292]

ohhh men come on.. You cant even compare that.. blitz360

Quanto costa

[@kenturner3268]

I received mine on 08/30/22 and can't say it was so smooth of an assembly. The box had been dropped on the corner and the wooden crate was busted. The logistics company that TSPROF.US used to fulfill the order put the tsprof box inside of a larger box with virtually no packing and when I received it from UPS the shipping tape was busted on both ends . Long story short the mechanical angle gauge was bent pretty bad which I blame on the shipper but the fact that the thumb screws that hold the unit to the weighted base would only thread in by hand about one third of the way and had to be tightened the rest of the way with pliers leaves me to wonder just what kind of quality control issues the company has. I am not happy with my purchase.

[@GunnysSharptalk]

Have you reached out to them? Curious what they had to say. I have no relationship with TSPROF and am in no way associated with them. That being said I appreciate you sharing your experience. And I am definitely interested in knowing how they handled things

[@kenturner3268]

@@GunnysSharptalk I have reached out to them and I will let you know if and when they reply. I called this morning and could not get an answer. I had no problem getting them to answer up until I took delivery of the sharpener. I almost pulled the trigger on a Blitz pro the other night. Glad I didn't.

[@GunnysSharptalk]

@@kenturner3268 hopefully they make things right. It sucks to have a bad experience. The sharpener itself in my experience is great. Customer service is sometimes lacking. Good luck. I wait to hear from you

[@kenturner3268]

@@GunnysSharptalk I sent it back on the 1st and a guy in Moscow emailed me and told me a new one would be shipped out by 10am on the second. Said he would send me tracking info from USPS but never did. My next one will be a Kazak or a Hapstone. Gritomatic is one hour drive from my house. At least buying from them in store I know what I am getting. I already bought and received three extra sets of clamps and a set of Boride TS stones from them.
