Once you learn how to use this simple device, your knives will be and stay sharp. No home should be without one of these!

Most excellent product. I have struggled for decades with steel rod sharpeners and water stones. I eventually get my quality knives sharpened after a lot of time and frustration. This product gets my knives sharpened in no time.

A little disappointed at first as this is not a solid bar type honer. However, after my first use I couldn't be more delighted with it. It's oval shape produces what I think is a better edge than a typical round bar type with diamond impregnation. I instantly set to work putting razor sharp edges on every knife in my kitchen in no time flat. It's long size makes it adaptable for any size blade and increases the safety when in use. I gave it four stars only because being hollow I'm not sure how well it will wear, however even with the solid round rod it subject to the wear and tear on the diamond impregnation so I suspect this will be holding up as well as any other. My last sharpener was a round stone type which broke easily the first time it was dropped. Not only is this well made sharpener quite a bit stronger it puts every bit of sharp and edge on my blades as well as any other I have ever used including those electrical ones that put excessive wear on your blades. I recommend this sharpener as it is a quality and excellent value for the price.

I paid about $20 for this sharpener; most of its competitors were ~$100. Maybe it won't last, but it seems every bit as robust as the more expensive versions.

Is more abrasive than my old one.

Great replacement for standard sharpeners in the kitchen

This steel allows me to keep my knives razor sharp! I'm very happy with it!

Really nice quality. I have had several similar ones over the years and this one is really well made and better quality than most others.
