Provided you understand that it will not work that well for all your knives it’s a decent system. The problem I had is that 60% of my knives are not well suited for the system. Otherwise, the build quality is fantastic.. I wish that the course disc was more aggressive. You have to allow 8 to 15 minutes per knife even if the knife is in decent shape. If you’re cool with that this is probably the system for you. Read more

This product is really easy to use. Its only con is that I'm guessing at the angle of the knife. Super easy to use, just hold the knife to the magnetic base on the angle of choice and roll the sharpener back and forth on the knife. There are 3 grits, so you can really get an edge on your knives. I have 4 different sharpeners and really like thus one overall. Read more

I have been using a pull through disc sharpener for many years and have been very happy with it. Sharpened edges didn’t seem to last very long, but easy to restore. Saw a few reviews for this model, and despite some negative reviews, went ahead and purchased. Absolutely love this approach - provides more feel/control than the pull thru sharpener and the different discs let me customize the work a bit more. A few tips based on the reviews I’ve seen here; 1) the sharp edge of the knife blade goes up! Watch the videos… 2) you dont have apply a lot of force to get a good result, especially with the coarse (320) disc. 3) attach the knife to the base in the middle of the blade, that way the block is supporting the blade for most of the sharpening stroke, with only ~1-2 inches of tip protruding - less bending of the blade tip this way Overall very happy with the purchase - sharpened edges are definitely a bit sharper and although I’ve only used it for most knives once, edges seem more durable as well.
