We had some really dull kitchen knives (Butter knife sharpness) that took 20+ passes on the course stone to get them in shape. Now they are VERY SHARP now. Can't believe how well it works for what we paid for it.
Well, my knives that could not cut though warm butter are now super sharp. I think I will start doing what professional chefs do, sharpen after each use. I will also purchase made in the USA knives like Chicago Cutlery instead of Made in China products. Cost more but I think it would be worth the investment in quality and the lifetime guarantee.
all of our kitchen knives need to be sharpen so I bought this one based on other reviews and I'm glad that I did. It was simple to start and to use. Within a few minutes we had almost all of our knives ready to use. I would recommend to anyone
I am 60 years old and have ALWAYS used a stone to sharpen my knifes, and was skeptical about buying this. Its the BEST.... Easy to use, fast and my kitchen, hunting, and pocket knifes are the sharpest they have been in a long time.
This knife sharpener was the lowest priced sharpener I could find online. I knew that Presto is a decent brand, so I decided to give it a try. If I wasn't impressed, I was going to return it. My kitchen knives were well worn, with many nicks along their edges. They were so bad I thought there was no way this product would even work! However, to my amazement, it sharpened every knife to a razor sharp edge. They are sharper now than the day I bought them! I definitely recommend this product!
I purchased this item based on people reviews that differs in judgment , but like they say , experience is the best proof , it depends on the way you handle , if done as directed it'll give you the best results , only I wish it works scissors as well .
This has been the easiest process to get super sharp knives. I can't imagine having a functional kitchen without it. Knives are razor sharp with just a few swipes.
I have been a Master Mechanic and Hunter for 38 years At first I was a little disappointed. Yet, once I understood some certain ways to use it properly. Example: I found if you use the Left GRINDING Wheel... you can make matters worse. It probably doesn't need it. test it lightly in Right Wheel and see if the original edge is at the same angle after a light pass. The real trick is to Learn the downward pressure and the speed you pull it through. This IS a Precision Machine! (If you know how to learn it)
After reading all of the negative reviews and some positive, I decided to try this sharpener. The cost is low and Walmart's return policy is a no-brainer. In comparison to my manual sharpener, this electric sharpener is awesome. I'm sure there are better (and more expensive) sharpeners out there, but this one is great for my needs. I sharpened about 30 knives in about 20 minutes, and they've never been more sharp! I agree with other reviews that this sharpener lacks power, but as long as you align the blade correctly in the slot, this won't be an issue. It may, however, be an issue as to how long it holds up. I found it more productive to slip the blade in the slot and pull it through with no downward pressure other than its own weight. This kept the speed of the motor constant and allowed the blade to align itself. Both cheap and expensive knives were sharpened perfectly. Many were serrated (including the so called permanently sharpened "Ginsu" knives...ha!). This was not a problem, although with repeated sharpenings I can foresee the serrations being honed away. I'm very happy with the overall quality and price!
First thing I did when this product arrived was to drag out all the knives we've acquired over the years. Worked excellent on all of them. Some were expensive, some cheap. Haven't had knives this sharp since we used to take them to a commercial service. Just be patient, follow the instructions. You will get good results.
