The system has a generally planar rigid sharpening table with a securing means for rigidly attaching to the positioning table in a removable manner. The system has a pivotally mounted positioning component on the table top surface. The positioning component has a generally “L” shaped cross-section in a transverse plane. The positioning component has a centrally located pivoting means for mounting to a sharpening table top surface.
