Electric Knife Sharpener Easy Way To Sharpen Most Kitchen & Sport Knives To Razor Sharp Edge Professional 2 Stage System Precision Grids Perfect Sharpening Angle Then Fine Hones & Polishes The Edge Special Sapphirite Sharpening Wheels Are Made From Utra Hard Material Used In Professional Sharpening Shops No Guess Blade Guides Automatically Hold The Blade At Proper Sharpening Angle
Amazon.com Review
All kitchen and sporting knives, whether professional quality or inexpensive, need a blade tune-up now and then. This electric sharpener produces razor-sharp edges using the same rapidly rotating Sapphirite grinding wheels used by professional shops. A two-stage system allows knives to be ground and sharpened on the Stage 1 half of the machine, and then honed on the Stage 2 half. Blade guides hold the knife at the ideal sharpening angle for each side of the blade, as it is drawn slowly towards the user and kept parallel to the countertop. The sharpener is suitable for knives made of alloy, carbon, or stainless steel; it is perfectly normal for sparks to fly when knives of high carbon steel come in contact with the Sapphirite wheels. Non-electric serrated knives that are only serrated on one side can also be sharpened with this machine. Three suction cups on the bottom hold the sharpener securely on a table or countertop, and two receptacles underneath catch metal filings for disposal. The sharpener measures 8-1/4 by 5-3/4 by 4 inches, and is covered by a two-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

 Low price is misleading... August 29, 2008
ant (San Diego, CA, USA)
Does a terrific job of making knives razor sharp. You need to exercise care in the grinding stage to avoid removing more metal than necessary, but you don't have to do it very often. Honing is a breeze, and maintains the sharpness.
 Great sharpener for great results with little skill. August 29, 2008
Tatyana Shimunova (New York)
This is a good sharpener for those who have a difficult time getting that nice angle on the knife. It really sharpens knives razor sharp. It will take a few tries to get a good sharpening simply because one would need to get used to the shakiness that one might feel from the turning stone within the machine, when placing the knife in.
Fabulous August 28, 2008

This sharpener works wonderful. I have purchased it based on the existing reviews and can just confirm. If you have in mind to purchase an electric sharpener, this is the one to buy.
One drawback August 20, 2008
Patrick T. Barnes (Victoria, Tx. United States)
Does a good job. Only problem I've had is that it doesn't sharpen some knives all the way to the end of the blade. You are left with a small portion of unsharpened blade near the handle. This creates an unevenness on the edge.
There's nothing quite so satisfying as a good, sharp knife! August 7, 2008
Diane Kistner (Tallahassee, Florida)
I bought this knife sharpener hoping it would help me get the hang of sharpening knives for the kitchen, and it did. Just follow the simple directions, and it's a snap.
I have old knives inherited from grandparents that I thought weren't any good, but it turns out they are excellent knives that hold an edge really well. This knife sharpener has definitely changed the way I thrift-store shop now!
