AccuSharp Knife & Tool Sharpener - Professional Diamond-Honed Tungsten Carbide Sharpener for Kitchen Knives, Pocket Knives, Hunting & Outdoor Tools - Perfect for Sharpening, Restoring & Repairing Blades - Ideal for Home Kitchen, Camping & DIY Projects

This is a great sharpener! Every time I use a a knife I wash it then before it gets put away I slide it through this sharpener then hone it real quick to keep it ready to go for the next time! Always super sharp knives ready for use! It says it’s guaranteed for a (lifetime?) but I replace mine about every other year. You can tell when it’s time because the knives don’t slide through as easily. You can also buy replacement sharpening blades for these but for as inexpensive as they are I just buy a new one and recycle the old one.Good product. I have purchased this before but my children took it from me because they love it. Bought a brand new one for myself and UPS lost it. I’m bummed. I’m very hesitant to order again because of UPS. The owner of this product was willing to work with me right away and I appreciate that. But I’m still missing a knife sharpener nowI run through knives at my job like no other. This sharpener let's me stick to one for a good while. I work in underground electric and I have to cut through cable insulation all the time. It's really good. I probably have to sharpen my knife every 3 days but it's quick.Worked really well and my nephew went thru all the drawers and sharpened everything that needed it. Then his dad took it to use on the knives at their house! And he "returned" a new one. Easy to use and stores in the same drawer as the rest of the knives.on the short run when i need to sharp my knife this is my go to tool.it makes it sharp on the spot but ill recommend sharpening the knife with a stone to make it last longer.this is a good product for the easy and go.Using this sharpener might be the most fun I’ve had in a long time. Easy to use, satisfying af and it actually works! My knives actually cut things now instead of mashing things like they did before!Knifes are sharper than before. Protection is amazing. Most likely impossible to cut yourself during sharpening. Probably better options available, if want faster and extremely sharper. For price point it is really good.If you have your knives sharpened to an appropriate angle, you can achieve razor sharpness with this sharpener in a very short time. I have been using them for years. When it gets worn, and does not sharpen well, you can remove the screws, open the handle, and reverse the carbide blades one time. This essentially doubles the life of the sharpener. Very good for someone who needs sharp knives but does not want to learn more complicated and difficult methods using wet stones etc.This sharpener creates a very sharp edge to your knives very quickly. Evidence of the metal removed can be seen if you wipe the blade with a white kitchen towel after sharpening. Yes it will damage expensive japanese blades, but on most mid to low price blades it will give you a very sharp edge.Don't apply too much pressure to re-sharpen but if your blade is blunt, draw it across with firm pressure and you will feel it removing material and forming a new edge. It works better than other "copies" of this style of sharpener and I am guessing its due to the way the blades are mounted in the handle.Don't think of it as a one tool for every knife, but as a fast sharpener for your less precious blades.This is a great sharpener! I've used a lot of methods and gadgets in my time including oilstones and diamond sharpeners... For all the "gadget" sharpeners this one is a winner. Sure there might be purists out there who need organic artisan zen-sharpening for their ultra expensive blah blah chef knife, but that kind of roody-poo is never satisfied anyway. Dude this will whip your blades into a great shape - the freaking thing is already dull AF anyway, amirite? You have nothing to lose.Tungsten Carbide is one of the hardest materials on earth - and this little gem has a pair of reversible TC sharpening stones, so after you wear them down you can flip them over and start all over - plus they sell spares. I use mine in a handheld position like a traditional sharpening steel and the little handguard works to protect my meathooks without even thinking about it. BOOM.... Slide the blade through the handy notch in this sharpener and in a few strokes you're good to go. You can maintain a great edge super fast and carry on as if you were normal afterwards. This thing even does serrated edges if you take the time. *mic drop*Never used a knife sharpener before,normal kitchen knives are so cheap now that I replace them when they no longer cut. However having decided to be more eco-friendly thought I'd try my hand at sharpening and plumped for this. It is easy to use and works well so I think it is a good buy. One thing to watch out for. When you finish sharpening the knife give it a good wash and clean or it will be contaminated with steel filings.Used a few methods to sharpen my kitchen knives including stones and tungsten cutters (as this device). Never had great results from tungsten cutters and using a stone just took too long and required a lot of set-up and a learning curve. Was almost going to spend around £100 on a abrasive belt hand held device, but after reading reviews, decided to give the AccuSharp a try - was only £12 so not a lot to lose.To my surprise this is the easiest and effective knife sharpener I have ever used. The first knife had a very dull edge so I had to draw the AccuSharp over the blade about 25 times. After this I could easily slice paper (as a trial) and it cut meat like a chef! Now every time I use the knife I give it 2 passes with the AccuSharp to maintain a perfect edge. OK...I know under a microscope it's not going to be perfect because the methos of sharpening is 'shearing action' which is not as good as micro fine abrasive wheels/belts/stones.....but does it matter....it would be difficult to tell the difference in use. Excellent product. Also, you can get double life out of it by swapping the blades round.
