Sharpening Systems with FFG blades

[Muaddib1116]

A good sharpening system is next on my list of things to buy, and I've been looking at the Lansky and Edge Pro Apex. The big price jump is making me lean towards the Lansky, but I just realized that (as far as I can see from pictures) it's gonna have issues with clamping a FFG blade, and getting the correct edge bevel angle. Could people with Lansky systems comment on this? Also, does the Edge Pro Apex have the same issue (if any)? Thanks guys.

Lansky works fine with FFG. Since it has two screws, it is trivial to angle the clamp to match the angle of the grind, although really it's not something you have to worry about.

To use a lansky I found this thread very helpful. http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45086&highlight=Lansky
