Premium Knife Sharpener

Great knife sharpener. It is simple to use and does a nice job. One of the reasons that I purchased it was that it sharpens scissors. I used to buy new sets of scissors every year or so to keep sharp ones handy. With this sharpener, I have gone through my pile of different sized scissors and have sharpened them and see a major improvement with their cutting precision. The sharpener is not expensive and I no longer have to purchase replacement scissors. Also, my knives are always sharp.

Works well. Easy to use.

This device is a decent one at its price point. It is very easy to handle due to the slightly rubbery feel to the type of plastic they have used in its construction. And the ergonomically shaped handle with the grooves for your fingers underneath makes it comfortable to hold tightly when sharpening a knife. There are also well-placed rubber pads on the bottom to help avoid the whole thing slipping while being used. All of these things combine to make accidents less likely so as long you're careful that shouldn't be an issue. It seemed to work well also. I sharpened our largest knife without my wife's knowledge and then put it back in the block. Later that night when cutting chicken (still a little ice in the middle from the freezer) for dinner she did notice a difference and asked if I had done something. She said it wasn't a huge difference but she did mention it seemed to be cutting a little easier and smoother. These are 8+ year old knives that have never before been sharpened, so I guess it's good that it worked. I'm sure if I used the "fine" sharpener a couple more times it would improve even more. One downside worth noting is that the two pieces of plastic come together unevenly in a couple of places. On the top, the plastic is so perfectly even that you can barely tell there is a seem at all. But on the back of the handle, and underneath on the bottom, the plastic is so uneven that it makes a ridge scratchy enough to make it uncomfortable if rubbed the wrong way. All in all, I would recommend this sharpener.

The reviews crack me up. Some people expecting way too much, to be able to create paper thin slices on a tomato with a $10 Walmart knife. Other people just completely blown away because they don't spend any time in the kitchen and have never sharpener their knives in 10 years. This is a basic knife sharpener. The build quality for the price is unbeatable. Feels like it should cost more like $20 - $30 and I'm sure this exact product rebranded with a different name on the handle is sold for exactly that at brick and mortar. It's going to get your knife pretty sharp and you're going to have to reuse this somewhat frequently. Say once every week or two depending on how often you cook. For best results an actual chefs knife is going to make a difference. I'm using a $30 standalone chefs knife. That's going to be a better piece of equipment than pulling a random knife out or your 8 pack of assorted knives you got on sale from Walmart for $19.99 Though it's not going to send you to the hospital unless you're really negligent in the kitchen. If you want expert sharpness where you can cut paper thin slices off a tomato you're going to need to use a whet stone and learn how to use it. There's an art to it and a good amount more effort involved to get a razor sharp edge. Though based on the common sense (or lack thereof) in these reviews, I'm not sure it's the best idea you people should have a razor sharp blade lmao.

Went on vacation and the place had crappy dull knives. Dull knives not only suck but are dangerous. Went to Amazon and ordered this cheap sharpener similar to the more expensive one I have at home. Guess what, this one works just as great. Left it at the Airbnb for the next guys.

Does not sharpen scissors or knives well

I just bought it and am amazed at how easy it is to use and how sharp it has made my once very dull knives. I would give this as a gift.

I've been a honing stone user for 70 years. Because of my arthritis I'm forced to find something easier. This device does a fairly good job of aligning and sharpening my knives. I still finish with a very fine stone to get the perfect edge. I recommend this sharpener for it's ease of use.

The only complaint I have with this sharpner is that it made my dull knife so sharp that I cut my own hand with it. Really great product and quite handy

Sharpened all of our kitchen knives. Very sharp and easy to use on a regular basis.

works on everything

Useless product.

I had a few knives which were blunt and wanted to sharpen them so I tried this brand. It was affordable and it came on time. The pros for this product were if you have blunt knives without a sharp knife edge then it will definitely create it for you. It also comes with a handy glove which allows for a sturdy grip on the knife sharpener and also a set of instructions on how to sharpen your knives/scissors. The cons are if you have very blunt knives, it'll take 10 -15 or even more tries before its sharp, not razor sharp. Overall, I would say a beginners tool for sharpening knives.
