Product Description

A dull knife is a dangerous knife, far more likely than a honed blade to slide off the food and slice your finger. This electric sharpener realigns the cutting edge easily and quickly.

Forget buying new knives
By Nikki Unwin
I wasn't sure whether to buy a expensive set of knives or try to sharpen my old ones. I figured the cheapest option would be to buy the knife sharpener. I am so pleased I did because my knives are now razor sharp, they actually cut through paper like butter. I read the reviews on the sharpener before buying. A few said it was difficult and time consuming to use but I didn't think this at all. You literally just run the knife through as many times as the booklet says and before you know it, you have sharp knives. The metal shavings left from sharpening the knives are easy to pick up using a fridge magnet. I would recommend this product to anyone because it actually works.

TRIUMPH OF ADVERTISING OVER UTILITY
By John Hunt
Chefs Choice Two Stage Electric Knife SharpenerOnly when you buy this thing will you discover that you must 'Break-In' your knives as follows; Stage 1: to 'reangle'(!) the factory edge. With newish knives 15 to 20 pulls are required; with dull knives more than 20 pulls may be required through each of the first two slots followed by 4 fast pulls through each slot. Unlikely but let's say all goes well and it only takes 40 to 50 pulls to Break-In ONE KNIFE. (Note that 'Subsequent resharpenings require fewer passes in Stage 1' (but not Stage 2)); that's encouraging. Now; Stage 2: the knife needs honing, of course. This requires pulling blade through both honing slots 4 to 6 times and then 8 to 12 fast pulls. This is a further 24 to 36 pulls. Finally, 'test for sharpness... if not sharp enough repeat Stages 1 and 2...Resharpening requires, Stage 1: 8 to 10 (times 2) plus 8 fast (times 2). Stage 2: 4 to 6 (times 2) plus 8 fast (times 2). That's at least a couple of dozen pulls.In case you're wondering, my knives never became anywhere near 'razor sharp' and some could be seen to have a slightly serrated appearance.Finally, if you insist on buying this disaster, beware counting the pulls, you may lose the will to live.

Stay honed
By Iain McCormick
Might seem a bit pricey but this knife sharpener really does the biz... Simple to use and with rubber feet, stays firmly planted on the worktop as you use it. A few minutes about every week or so keeps my carving and food prep knives really in top condition.
