The sharpener is the unit mounted on the slicer's carriage that houses the emery stones and lets you sharpen the blade without removing it from the machine.

Types: complete sharpener (with protective cover), without cover, removable (for cleaning) and carriage-mounted versions — the choice depends on your slicer's original configuration.

Compatibility by brand and model: available for ABM (e.g. mod. 935, 9300, GD-UNI), ABO (for carriage or Mignon model), Arsa (e.g. mod. 220/250, A350/370i), Atoma (mod. 250/300), Bizerba (mod. Settebello) and RGV (removable, models 195/220/250) — always check brand and model before ordering, the mounting to the carriage changes from brand to brand.

Abrasive emery stones are sold separately: see Emery Stones to find the correct size.

Frequently asked questions

Does the sharpener already include the emery stones?
It depends on the specific listing: always check whether the product includes the emery stones or if they need to be ordered separately.

Can I fit a sharpener from another brand on my slicer?
Only if the mounting system to the carriage matches: between different brands both the fitting and the shape often change.
