Does this thing actually work?
It made my knives *more* dull. As the instructions provided were pretty scant, I scoured the Internet and followed tutorials, but no. : (

Dissappointed
Does not work, knives are still dull after multiple attempts to sharpen with this tool

Help?
Not sure how many swipes are supposed to work, but this is difficult for me to get my knives sharp. Are they just really dull? I’m following the instructions, but it seems not to work. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Not what I expected
Does not make a lasting shape edge. Lasts for only four or five uses.

Works great, and super easy.
For a "gadget" like this, it really works well. I can sharpen my knives very quickly and consistently with this tool.

Still not sharp enough
I got this for two reasons. It is a Wusthof and it is convenient. Unfortunately, I can not get the edges of the knives back to factory. Some of my knives are 20 degrees and some 15 degrees. Course or Fine tend to either dull the blade or does not get to 20 degrees. I'm guessing somewhere around 25 degrees. That said, I have more success with a wet sharpening stone. It is more work but does the job. In between sharpenings you must hone of course.

I Love It!
I love this sharpener! It is so easy to use and gives a nice edge to my favorite knives. Now, every time I use a knife I give it a quick sharpen when I am done and I know when I next use it it will be sharp and ready to go. No more calling my husband to sharpen the knives with a stone for me, or delaying on sharpening, no excuses with this easy way to do it.

Does nothing
Very disappointed. Should be foolproof. Seems to make my Gourmet line knives even more dull

Easy, convenient, and sharp!
So easy to give a quick sharpening to my Wusthof knives. Especially when breaking down meat to freeze I like to give a quick sharpen during this task.

Effective, easy to use
This product keeps the razor edge on our Wusthof Classic knives via honing; I have not yet had to use the sharpening set on them. It will SHARPEN other knives, but with increased time and effort, as those edges aren't likely to be the same angle as the Wusthof knives. This particular product is not for the Asian-type knives, which have a different edge angle. My wife is now very happy to have sharp knives.
