Quick and Handy For Most Knife Blades Oct 29, 2007
By Mike Sierra No one angle is ideal for all blades and all types of work, but this little sharpener delivers a good edge suitable for most work. For a really fine edge, I still prefer the traditional flat stones as I have more individualized control of the angle I'm sharpening at.
Despite that preference, I found the bevel created by this sharpener excellent for plain edge kitchen knives and very good for most other knives. This tool does the job quickly and efficiently. I had a collection of dull kitchen knives in a variety if different steel types and in the time it normally takes to sharpen two blades on my flat stones, I had them all sharpened. It also did a great job on a machete I use for garden work.
Using the device is simplicity itself. Stand the sharpener on edge and pull the blade through the Coarse side five to six times. Be carful when the blade come out of the guide not to drop the blade on your exposed fingers! Repeat the process if not satisfied with the edge, When you have a nice edge, flip the sharpener over and draw the blade through the Fine slot another five or six strokes. That's it! For really large blades, clamp the sharpener in a vise and draw the blade through. This minimizes the chances of cutting yourself.
Overall 3½ out of 5 and I'll give an extra half point for simplicity and ease of use.

Puts a Sharp Edge on Any BLade Oct 13, 2005

This product will put a quick edge on any knife, large or small. Simply draw the angled (paired) sharpening stones over your blade, and presto - you have an edge, and a pretty good one too. Best of all, the sharpener is very portable, weighs less than nothing, and fits into backpacks, fishing tackle boxes, hunting fanny pack, etc. with no added weight or bulk.
The edge that this sharpener puts on a blade is a great starting point for further honing of the blade to razor sharpness if desired.
I have several of these sharpeners. The only drawback is that the sharpening stones wear out after perhaps 6 - 10 sharpenings. But under 5 bucks a unit, this is a bargain.

Smith's Knife sharpener Mar 27, 2008
By CharLee Brown Putting an extremely sharp edge on a knife has never been easier. Call me all thumbs when it comes to sharpening knives. In the past I would rather buy a new knife than to sharpen one since I could never seem to get a sharp edge on it. Within 30 minutes after receiving this sharpener, we went from having 10 dull edged knives to ones that are extremely sharp. The sharpener is worth much more than it cost.
