The Kadet Pro worked out perfect for my personal knives. I keep it in a small 12 inch long tool bag along with the essentials. Remove the rod and rod guide, disassemble the rod into two pieces, leave the rod guide attached to the rod. NO OTHER DISASSEMBLY. I bought a coarse Atoma 6 x 1 inch diamond for faster reprofiling. Also added a Janda 6 micron resin bonded stone for mirror polish. All stones are 6 inches so I never need to adjust the set screw for stone length. I adjust for height only once for the Janda polishing stone. Always try to use stones of the same length and height to minimize all the required adjustments. The Kadet Pro fits nicely in the tool bag, along with the 6 inch stones in a soft roll case, tools and diamond lapping fluid in a pencil case, electronic angle gage, 30X lighted magnifier, small towel to wipe up any mess. It is a great portable setup. I bought twice as much stuff than I needed, so hope this helps. I love the Russian quality and attention to detail.
I’ve been using a WorkSharp Professional Adjust and just purchased a K03 last night. I’m not limited by space, and wanted to see how a more professional system stacks up. I’m pretty excited to check it out!

@@TSPROFSharpeningI would be sharpening mainly pocket/fixed knives under like 10”… I cannot decide KO3, Piomeer or Kadet Pro. Would the KO3 just be overkill? Is it any harder to learn than the others?
@@TSPROFSharpening thanks guys was really stressing about it handling smaller knives since the clamps look bigger but I just order one and should be her on Friday!
Hello, I own a sharpening business and im looking for a sharpener to sharpen with on my instagram and tiktok. The kadet pro seems like an good Option but i want it to sharpen mostly higher end pocket knifes up to 15cm blade lenght, is there an option for thinner clamps to sharpen smaler knifes also ? Greetings
Hello! You can additionally get filet clamps for Kadet, they're are more thin and with reduced angle. Not sure if they''re available now 'cause that depends on where you are. Please check on that on our website. Thanks!
I know i was gonna get pioneer or Kadet till I realized when I buy axicube im close to the KO3. It might be overkill but I’ll never have to worry about sharpening anything ever again. Might as well go big 😊
@ that the fun part. With the Axicube and a knife mat, I’m still $210 under the K03. I’m definitely going to upgrade to the K03 later, though, but until them imma stick with my guns and mod out my Kadet
He man. With the Kadet Pro you talk about big knives up to 300mm. Does this mean the complete knive or the blade length? And will all Victorinox blades fit like the Classic SD 34mm blade or only the bigger 85mm+ models?
I"m sorry, should've watched the whole video first. I already see that is max. ''blade'' length when you talk about the 300mm on the Kadet. It doesn't state a minimum length, except for the K03?
The limit of 300mm blade length works for average knives with sufficient thickness. If the knife is longer than 300mm it would a real challenge to turn it to another side. BUT when we talk about something thin, like a fillet knife for example, maximum length will be limited by the frame that holds the clamps (about 14,5mm). In case your blade is thinner than 2,5mm and it is longer than the frame that holds the clamps, it will most likely bend outside this length and it will affect the sharpening process.
Thank you for the video. I have a few questions. Are there any mechanical differences between the k03 expert and the standard? Or do those only refer to packages? Are units from 2 or more years ago exactly the same as the newer one in terms of materials?
Thanks for asking! As for differences between K03 Expert and Standard 2021, there's a few: Expert has a wider angler range and Standard comes with a steel stand, but Expert doesn't. Here's a video with a table of comparison, just find a chapter with K03. th-cam.com/video/pq7Eg3qBRoc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TSPROFInternational Regarding to the previous units. Yes, they made of the same materials, all of aluminum, except the latest one - K03 Pro Hunter, there's a linfting unit made of polyacetal. Hope, it helped.
@@TSPROFSharpening Thank you for the response. Is the expert compatible with the steel stand? I see you have the standard on sale right now. I’m puzzled at how the standard can be so much cheaper than the expert when it comes with the base and the difference does not seem so significant. Also, could you tell me the major differences between the K03 and K02? Thank you 🙏🏼

I have the kadet pro. Sharpened my first three knives on it yesterday. So far I really like it.

How do you like it? I’m literally in the exact same situation. I hate my WPP it’s trash! Just can’t decide KO3, Pioneer or Kadet Pro
very helpful comparison thank you
Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the feedback. But I don't really understand which one you're talking about.
Is the K03 as good at sharpening smaller knives like pocket knives as the blitz or kadet?
Sure thing! K03 is just more a professional and multitasking tool.
@@TSPROFSharpeningI would be sharpening mainly pocket/fixed knives under like 10”… I cannot decide KO3, Piomeer or Kadet Pro. Would the KO3 just be overkill? Is it any harder to learn than the others?
I have the old KO2 that came in the wood crate. I really need to upgrade to something easier to transport lol
Unfortunately, we don't currently have other options
Can the ko3 sharpen smaller pocket knives?
Sure thing!

Have you tried serrated bread knives
We haven't yet come up with something for serrated blades.
The angle sizes I guess are inclusive (the sum of both sides), not just on one side - or?
Per side :)
@@TSPROFSharpening Thank you.
Psst, they’re all 30% off right now. I’m grabbing the K03 since it’s now the same price as what the Kadet was. Gotta love Black Friday sales

@@TSPROFSharpening understood, thanks!
Only 30mm blade width for the Blitz pro?
- so it's not suitable for most chef knife?
We wanted to say it starts from 30 mm and up to 70-80 mm

It's good, but it is not that good
