Product Description

The Original Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener is the first knife sharpener designed to sharpen every knife you own. Using flexible abrasive belts, the sharpener is able to sharpen not just straight bladed knives, but also curved knives, tanto blades, filet knives, serrated knives, gut hooks and virtually any other shape of knife blade. The Knife & Tool Sharpener uses precision angle sharpening guides to ensure that you get the proper angle every time. Two guides are included: a 50° guide for hunting and outdoor knives (25° per bevel) and a 40° guide for thinner blades and kitchen knives (20° per bevel).

Knives are good as new... No better
5 Stars
Knives are good as new... No better
I've owned a great set of Japanese style kitchen knives by Wolfgang puck that have been great for the last 11 years. Been able to use a basic handheld sharpener to keep them sharp for the last decade. Only recently even with sharpening they just wouldn't weren't cutting like they used to. I was ready to replace them but thought maybe the sharpener was the problem. In my research...er YouTube, I came across the Worksharp and was flooded with so many reviews about it. Some were by knife nerds who for some reason are trying to sharpen their knives for purposes us normal people have no idea about so I ignored those guys and ordered it.The instructions were easy to follow. I went to work on all of my kitchen knives and all I can say is WOW... I don't ever remember my knives being this sharp. And yes, I tried the paper cut test and they all slice paper like it was butter... AmazingI agree with others that there is some techniques involved and remembering to keep the knife straight, pull slowly were things you just have to remember. Anyway, in about 30 minutes I had sharpened about all of my kitchen knives a total of seven. That set includes a cleaver that is now razor sharp. So here are my peeves1.Obviously after a few passes, the belt tensioner gets a little hot to the touch, so switching between belts either requires a cool down period or some slightly singed figertips2.As some have mentioned the belts are color coded but this isn't all that clear. The red coarse belt is more brownish and labeling is inconsistent. The purple fine belt looks grey, not rocket science but again not clear.3. I would have really appreciated a case for this even if it cost a little more. This doesn't exactly store well because of its shape and since it's mostly plastic, I wouldn't out this in my tool box.. even if I had the room. I see there's one on Amazon, I'll probably get that oneI sharpened my pocket knives as well and I don't think I would use the fine belt to hone them again. I prefer a more rigid edge for cutting fishing line and bait, not necessarily a smooth edge for slicing. Overall, I'm very well pleased with this unit
