Also…. are you sure it is actually at 17 dps and not lower?


I have been using lansky since 2006. I'm not sure if it really is 17dps but yes i am using the lowest angle which show's 17 but that's probably just a indication.


I picked up a magnetic angle guide for my KME, found out I was WAY off on what some of my angles were. I bought one for $15 that's supposed to be used for angling wheelchairs at specific angles, works great.
