Work Sharp Precision Knife Sharpener Compact Black

I started off with the Guided field sharpener by Worksharp and was very impressed. However one of my knives cutting edges needed to be reshaped as i wanted the cutting edge to be a 20 degree angle. I watched lots of reviews on this that said it was great value for money and was very efficient. They were not lying! This is very easy to use, very easy to set up and very efficient. I was able to reshape my cutting edge to 20 within 15 minutes and it is now razor sharp. Great job worksharp. Other similar precision sharpeners cost 3 times this much so im very happy with the purchase. It also has a 3 year warrenty for peace of mind

This was part of my Christmas present to my son. It was out of the box right away and he and my grandson tried it out on an Opinel knife. Perfect and sliced through a sheet of paper like butter. Then it was a badly worn Sabatier paring knife. That needed the rough hone to start with but by this time the action was practised and in no time the blade was rejuvenated. When they got to the 8" chef's knife they were like pros. I have had a small hand held Work Sharp for years and the hones are still as effective as new so I am confident that this version will be the same.

Price of this bit of kit is unbeatable when you consider what you can do with it. Ideal for blades less than six inches in length. Can be used for larger blades but a little more care required. Used on pocket and kitchen knives and all now hair-cutting, razor sharp! Easy to put together and use. Ideal for the beginner/intermediate knife sharpener. Worth every penny!

I own quite a few different knives as I do a lot of camping. After first purchasing a wet stone and making my knives even more blunt than they already were I came across this product. Having never used it before now I'm amazed at just how easy it is to use. Simple to set up and if you Google "knife profiles" it gives you a list of appropriate angles for different knives. Now armed with this info I set to work. I can't believe I haven't had this to iny life before now ! After working my way through ally different knives, then around the house, everything is now razor sharp ! It's simple, effortless and quick, taking just 5-10 min on each knife. Thoroughly recommend this sharpener to anyone. 10/10 😀

Excellent product, very easy to use and it gives fantastic results. A little patience is required initially as it can take a little time to get the blade back to a uniform cutting angle but once this is done it is so simple to keep on top of the sharpening. The only drawback I would say is the rod which the sharpener runs up and down on could do with being slightly longer and have a physical stop or lug to stop the sharpener coming off the end if you are sharpening a wide blade but with practice you do get into the hang of it. All in all an excellent purchase you won't regret buying

After blunting most knifes I've got by sharping stones. I had to buy this work sharp station. Its an amazing ive sharpen most of my knifes, ive even done a pair of sissors just to see and they are now sharp aswell. Its worth ever penny spent. The down side is I need more knifes so I'll have to buy another one or few.

Brilliant piece of kit. Watch your fingers after you’ve used it!

For someone who has only ever used v-blade sharpeners, this was a whole new experience, and a very good (and cheap) introduction to angle-honing sharpeners. Once put together, the unit is pretty stable, although it won't take much too rough handling, and it's too small for knives longer than about 10-11 inches. That said, it produces a very good edge, even on some of my old knives that have rough/cracked blades, although a step short of razor sharpness. The manual is good, and explains how to stroke the blade properly and test the burr after each round. The main thing I wish is that it worked a bit faster; but for that you need a motorized unit, and they _start_ at around three times the price of this one. My best time for sharpening a knife so far is 40 minutes, and after you've done two or three it gets a bit tedious; but the edge you get beats any other sharpener I've ever used.
