It makes the knives sharper but no where near sharp. I tried a few knives using both types of stones as per the instructions and didn’t get very sharp so did them all again and same thing. Used my steel after that and this made them a bit sharper but still a long way from sharp.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I can't say enough about this all-encompassing sharpener. I love that I can sharpen ALL of my staight-edged knives with it and it's such a fantastic value. You've invested in your knives so why not invest in a sharpener to keep them in tip top shape?

This sharpener produces amazing results. There are two angle options - Western and Japanese. They switch out so you can use what you need, when you need. No more lugging your knives to a sharpening service!

Once You Get it..Works Quite Well

Good alternative for stones. It's easy once you've done a few...can feel it sharpening. Changeable "stones" to get it right.

Easy to use

I feel like you should always use a sharp knife and if you're anything like me, you always mean to get your knives sharpened on a normal basis (probably twice a year with the amount I use my knives), but taking them in to a knife sharpener slips my mind and I go much longer than I should between sharpening. Now with this sharpener, I can have a professional level of sharpening right when I feel like my knives are getting dull because this is in my kitchen!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] bought this after talking with the associate on how to fix chips in the blades. I've only used it on one knife for now but so far it is working good.

Great knife sharpening tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife sharpener has replaceable blades and is easy to use. Although it does take up more space than the smaller versions, it’s a great tool to maintain your investments in kitchen knives.

Perfect for beginners

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a novice and finally made the decision to purchase some quality knives but have no experience in caring for them. This sharpener is perfect for me, easy to use and pretty much fool-proof. Changing the different components is simple and the ease of use gives me the confidence that I can properly care for my investment without worrying that I'll ruin my knives.
