I’ve used it on everything from butter knives (don’t judge me) to my chef’s knife, and it’s surprisingly satisfying to hear that “shhhhk” as the blade glides through the sharpener. The grip keeps your hands safe, which is great because I like my fingers attached, thank you very much. It’s compact, easy to use, and turns a chore into a tiny victory moment every time you sharpen.

Works great. Very easy to use and sharpens well. Cant beat this value!

I'm not a huge fan of inexpensive sharpeners. I prefer to use a stone to set the bevel of the blade, and follow it with a honing on an MDF wheel loaded with polishing compound. This produces an edge that will shave hairs, but it takes time. The end result was that I put it off, then I fight dull knives in the kitchen. A dull knife can be more dangerous than a sharp knife because the amount of force needed to get it to cut is higher. I wanted something that would make my kitchen knives reasonably sharp with just a few quick swipes. I decided $6 wasn't much of a gamble so I bought this thing. The coarse sharpener works fine. A few quick swipes will put a reasonably good, symmetric edge on my kitchen knives. The edge is a little rough, but it's sharp enough for most kitchen tasks and it only takes a few seconds. Running a knife through three or four times will produce a small pile of metal shavings under the carbide blades, so it is definitely removing material. The fine ceramic sharpener doesn't do much to remove the scratches left by the coarse carbide inserts-- it's TOO fine, at least on the one that I got. On mine, the ceramic stones loaded up with material almost instantly. They are now glazed and do nothing except lightly burnish the cutting edge. Better than nothing, I suppose, but they don't do much in the way of actual honing. In short, this sharpener does what it's supposed to do. It gets a kitchen knife reasonably sharp with two or three swipes, and it removes the temptation to bludgeon my way through an onion or a piece of beef with a dull blade. It won't produce a really keen edge like a good stone and polish, but I rarely need a knife that sharp for ordinary kitchen work. Definitely worth the $6.

... and my most used knife is back as new... very easy to use, it needs low space to storage.

Works as described! Sharpens my knife well. I was able to cut meat and chicken easily after using this.

I like this knife sharpener for its simplicity, but the performance leaves something to be desired. It’s very easy to use and provides a quick edge, but that sharpness doesn’t last long. After just a little use, the edge fades quickly, meaning frequent re-sharpening is necessary. I used this sharpener for a few years before switching to sharpening stones. While this product is fine for beginners or those who want something fast and convenient, it doesn’t compare to the long-lasting sharpness and control of stones. TL;DR: Easy to use and okay for quick edges, but the sharpness fades fast. Stones are a much better long-term solution.

Works great for the price

works well for kitchen knives. Small form factor is good for storage, but makes it harder to grip while sharpening at times. Other than, functionality is on point.

Buen producto
