Worth more than what it costs !
I just purchased this sharpener for my hunting and kitchen knives , after skinning and quartering 2 bull Elk this past October all my knives were pretty dulled up from the fur , i tried the belt type sharpener on one knife and it was no where near as sharp as the knife had been , so i ordered this sharpener , the first knife i tried it on was the knife i screwed up with the belt sharpener ,i clamped the knife blade in the jaws of the holder , i put the rod in the 25 degree slot and i used each stone to get the edge back , doing as the instructions said , and ran the stone towards the tip of the blade , and afterwards , i grabbed a piece of paper and tried to do what they did in the movie Rambo First Blood , where the Sheriff cuts the paper with Rambo's knife , mine cut just as easily , i was totally impressed , i used the lower angle for my kitchen knives , (20 degree) , this kit does not come with Stone Oil , the bottle is empty when it arrives , i decided to just use tap water in it , and along with a old tooth brush , it cleans the stones of the residue easily
Pros: Everything i mentioned above , it does what it says it does and makes sharpening easier for those of us without the skill of getting the proper angle consistently by by hand
Cons: I could not think of a single thing i did not like about this product , if there is one little thing , i would say , i wish the rods and stones were slightly longer to allow easier sharpening of longer knives , other than that , i have nothing negative to say about it at all
Its a great product for a minimal price compared to the ones i find in the Sporting Good Stores that are the same thing , but literally twice as much money , its as good in quality from what i can tell , i found nothing weak or made any different than the more expensive onesRead full review
