AccuSharp Knife Sharpener, Ergonomic Comfortable Handle, Compact & Easy to Use, Restore and Hone Straight & Serrated Knives, White

Great little knife sharpener. Does it sharpen to the point that it would if you manually sharpened and had lots of practice doing it? No. For the price, this is a killer little knife sharpener. Seriously easy, will get your blade resarpened and, depending on the type of steel of the knife, it will remove minor kinks on the edge of the blade. Ergonomically comfortable, fits nicely in the hand, and small size make this a fantastic deal.

This sharpener works great! I have two of em (one in my camping gear, one in the kitchen). So easy to use and quick results. Just a few pulls and im slicing through vegetables and meats with none of the frustrating dull knife issues. Can't recommend this sharpener enough. Also takes up little space in the kitchen drawer.

Worth every penny. It sharpens our knives perfectly. Easy to use and very reasonably priced b

I saw this simple gadget on an episode of America's Test Kitchen. It's the raters' budget buy at around $12. Don't let that price tag discourage you from considering this handy little gadget as it is indeed a good buy! It did better than my three other knife sharpeners and it is a breeze to use. After a few passes, my chef's knife is definitely much sharper. It's so good I also bought the company's garden tool sharpener.

Easy to use and does the job well

Works as described! Easy to use and really sharpens the blade!!!

My old sharpener finally broke after many years. It was a similar design Smith's. I saw all the positive reviews, affordable price and made in U.S.A. so I gave it a try despite the many negative reviews.I just needed it mainly for the kitchen knives, pocket knives and camping knives. Another reviewer said it worked on utility knife blades so I tried it. It works great and I don't have to buy blades by the 100 as often for sure.One reviewer suggested using it placed on flat surface instead of hand holding it and that works better for me as well. More control and less likely to slip and end up cut.I would not use this on any high quality knives. Many negative reviews on how this can damage an edge and I can see how this tool could indeed do that. It's a quick fix and not a precision sharpener so something to consider before using this on your knives. For me it's exactly what I need for everyday use. Practice on a knife you aren't worried about damaging. I found I barely have to put any pressure at all on the edge. Just smooth easy strokes. You can feel when it goes from rough to smooth and you're most likely done. I use it for a quick tune up on my edges as my knives aren't that great. Perfect for my everyday use. I hope this helps.

This sharpener is quick and easy to use. Puts a very sharp edge on knives, scissors and axes. Great product.
