Absolutely fantastic! Have *struggled* with whetstones and honers with tepid results, but I finally got over my “whetstones, ride-or-die!” mindset and bought this electric sharpener. Amazing results!! My embarrassingly dulled (beloved) German knives were restored to like-new sharpness in under a minute, even (almost) passing the “paper test.” (Further patient sharpening will no doubt enable easy passage.) Very glad I made this purchase; no more worries over dull knives. Read more

As someone who has struggled for years with traditional sharpening stones, often resulting in more frustration than truly sharp blades, this electric knife sharpener has been an absolute revelation. My previous attempts rarely achieved more than a "level 0.7" on my personal sharpness scale, leaving much to be desired. For context, my empirical sharpness scale is as follows: * Level 1: Slices ripe tomatoes with minimal effort. * Level 2: Effortlessly slices slightly damp paper towels. (Shaving arm hair is also roughly this level. Razor sharp.) * Level 3: A piece of hair falls onto the edge and is cleanly sliced by gravity alone (magically sharp). With this sharpener, the transformation was almost instantaneous. In just about 60 seconds (following the recommended 10 seconds per side across the three grit levels), my kitchen knives went from stubbornly dull to incredibly precise. The ultimate test? Effortlessly slicing paper-thin tomato slices – a solid "level 1.8" on my scale, and a feat I honestly didn't know was achievable for my knives outside of a professional sharpening service. It didn't quite reach a true "level 2" razor sharp edge, but it's remarkably close and more than sufficient for all culinary tasks. I also put it to the test with my ceramic knives. I was thoroughly impressed by its ability to revive a rather dull ceramic chef's knife, bringing it back to excellent cutting performance. Curiously, I had less success with a short ceramic paring knife, despite multiple attempts. This might be due to the knife's smaller size or specific blade geometry, but it's worth noting. In summary, this electric knife sharpener is a powerful tool for maintaining sharp edges on both steel and most ceramic knives. If your current knives are struggling to cut cleanly and you're tired of manual sharpening frustrations, I highly recommend considering this for your kitchen. It's a worthy investment for anyone seeking consistently sharp, high-performing blades. Read more

I generally use a sharpening steel to keep knives up to snuff, but even with that, you need to sharpen them on stones with various levels of abrasives. The old was was to pull out the manual kit and do it by hand. This is much faster, convenient, and gives better results. This system guarantees that there is even application on each side. The polishing feature is nice as well. I find that three times on each side works well. Worth the expense. Read more
