We have had other knife sharpeners including an electric one we bought and returned because it didn't work. This one has been terrific. Very easy to use. Is not electric. Has kept our knives nice and sharp which makes them safer to use. Because there are no motors or other electrically powered parts it should last a long time. Read more

Was skeptically initially when I was told about it. But having sharpened about all my knives ( including my pocket knives), I have to say I am impressed! Even my old dull butcher knife that I have had for over 20 years is so sharp that it can slice paper. I understand (from friends), that I am to sharpen my knives after each use, will do that to keep them sharp. Will recommend the product to others who are in the market for an easy to use, no hassle and with little to no damage to the knives (unlike electrical sharper) sharper. Read more

This sharpener was highly recommended and I can see why. Anything German made is worth it. Read more

Really great sharpener that has brought our kitchen knives back to life — but ugh, it's just a piece of molded plastic with some springs and two metal rods, so it feels like it's really, really overpriced. Read more

I've been looking for a great sharpener for a long time. I saw that the Slap Yo Daddy BBQ guy uses this one on his sushi knives. It is really good. It super sharpens my Wusthof knives in about 3 strokes. It's so much better than their sharpener. It's easy to use and to store. I didn't use the mounting plate or suction cups. Read more

I've bought my share of sharpeners hoping each would be the one, and later thrown them out.. Stones work, but it takes time and you have to know what you're doing. I saw this one recommended by a you tube grilling champion who's won hundreds of contest (and I wish I could remember his name), so I thought I'd take a chance at a price point I have not explored for knife sharpeners. I'm so glad I did because this thing rocks! It's very easy, very quick, and it works exceptionally well. Now I'm just afraid it may someday wear out and I won't be able to find another... Read more

Buy once, cry once. How much did you pay for that knife? Buy a quality sharpener for it! This is about as easy as it gets to keep a good edge. If you knock the edge off or chip it, you'll need more horsepower that this item. However, for day-to-day maintenance of cared for knives, this is a great product. Read more
