The version i recently purchased from gritomatic does not have the deep recess for the rod yet. Tension knob stops at the tip of the rod and does not allow for the further movement. Is the gen 2 going to be released soon?

@@stefansalmo5095 We discovered that early versions of the PPA has either worn out the plastic locking edges of their red locking mechanism, or possibly had a slight redesign from current versions. I redesigned it to remove the recessed "sleeve" and slightly redesigned the recessed slots for better locking - without damaging the plastic locking mechanism in the PPA. In case a lot of force is applied (more than required for sharpening), it can still slip out to protect the red plastic lock instead of breaking it. I redesigned Gen 2 just last week and Gritomatic will have them available any day now. If your PPA falls in the category of not locking the rotational movement then Gen 2 should work better for you. Gen 2 works on early PPA models and later ones that I've tested. Drop a note to Gritomatic and they should be able to help you out.
