Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It accepts the edge pro stones so you can easily upgrade to diamond or 12,000 grit if that's your thing. The included stones are not of the best quality, but it’s easy enough to replace them with better ones.

Comes with a u-joint bearing for the angle rod that is much less sloppy than the lansky-style models. The swivel is smooth as can be, no hangups. The clamp provided is intended to attach the device to a table.

This inexpensive sharpening system can be used to sharpen small knives. It works even with knives polished under 1000 grit. There's almost no limit to how fine a polishing paper you can get.



Cons

Natural stones are fine, but the fabricated whetstone abrasives crumble like dry sandstone. Not something i would use to sharpen my expensive demascus kitchen knives with. no instructions, have to look at amazon pictures to assemble.

Quality


Takes a little to get smooth with but most certainly with the price


Works very well with the better stones


Mechanically it is great however the quality of the sharpenening stones is very low


2 the device does not have markings related to the angle forcing me to get an angle detector if i care for the quality of the sharpness

Price


Now you are better prepared to decide if this product is worth the price

Packaging/appearance


Stones do not support the the design


Was wanting a fixed angle sharpener and found this on a youtube search

Competitiveness


A perfect set up to set your bevels


If you did it right you should have a much improved and useable flippable knife sharpener for a fraction of the cost of the pro options


It came with no instructions but utube videos on a variety of sharpening systems resulted in a short learning curve


I have used only once on a 440c steel pocket knife and even the 1500 grit will create a burr with one pass this may be user error though
