Summary: 5 Stars
Great value! I recently purchased the Henckels International Fine Edge Stylus knife block set for a smokin' low price, and was concerned that, because they weren't the top of the line Henckels, they wouldn't stay sharp. They did lose their edge rather quickly, but I use them almost daily and the honing steel could only accomplish so much. Faced with a beautiful, though dull set of knives, my first thought was, "Oh, no, I need to buy an expensive and counter-cluttering electric knife sharpener". I know that a sharp knife is a safe knife, and after two slips and cuts, I was ready to take the plunge and spend.Thanks to the great Cook's Illustrated review of this easy to use manual sharpener, I didn't have to! The Accusharp quickly and safely returned my knives to their original razor sharpness--no more cuts and worn out, sore arms and hands from bearing down on my knives. It was easy to get the hang of using it, even for me, a knife sharpening novice who formerly feared and dreaded this task! It's a good, 'intuitive' sharpening tool...you actually can feel the blade as it becomes sharper. A couple of passes with the honing steel to straighten the edge, and I'm good to go! Best of all, no counter space required, goes right in the utensil drawer, lightweight, and you can control how heavy or light the passes are, so no fear of nicking or chunking out a piece of your knife on a grinding wheel.I know that someday I will need to make a trip to a professional knife sharpener for a new edge, but I'm really grateful that this product will keep me going for a while in the meantime.Customer Review: Accusharp knife sharpener

I selected this product following the endorsement of Chris Kimball of Americas Test Kitchen TV show. It was delivered very quickly and I tried it almost immediately. Does a fine job- I could FEEL it working on a very dull blade! Just a few passes did the job, even on a serrated knife. The tool is small enough to store easily and comfortable to use. Read the directions- you put the knife on a flat surface and then stroke with the tool--not intuitive, but easy to understand and do.Customer Review: Accusharp- a kitchen necessity!

I am a Chef, and have always scoffed at these types of sharpeners, but this one really works. Follow the instructions, use a soft touch, and keep the knives and sharpener clean, and you will be very happy the the results.
