Welcome Lincoln,
We released the Gen II kits about a year and a half ago and that’s all we’ve been selling. The Pro-Pack I and the soon to be released Pro-Pack II have the Gen II kits at their cores. The Gen II featured a couple of upgrades from the original knife sharpener, including detent holes in the Base Rod, a taller Free Vise Jaw and a stainless steel insert in the Fixed Vise Jaw. Any sharpener you pick up now with the exception of the Field & Sport will be a Gen II sharpener.
Hi Everyone,
I’m new to the world of sharpeners and have been doing lots and LOTS of reading. I’ve finally decided on going with WE, but when I searched on some of the Dealer sites, there appears to be a “Gen II” version of the Sharpener kit. Here’s an example: http://www.oldawan.com/Products.html
Can someone please let me know what the difference is?
Thank you.
