Rich, I' ve found that the angles do vary sometimes but not all the time. Don' t know what it is exactly. And yes, any blade over 4" is stretching it' s capabilities.

As far as diamond sleeves/ stones in general, they are a plus IME. It allows for quick removal/ reprofiling and for starting up very dull blades.

I recommend the Spyderco units over the Lansky clamp system.
