A Great Product
I'll pit this sharpener up against any of the expensive contraptions. When the cutting edges wear out after 30 or 40 sharpenings, reverse the edges. When it wears out, so what. Just buy another one and you are still dollars ahead of anything else.

Does Just What You Expect
Prior to purchasing, i was skeptical that such a cheap item could achieve the desired result (sharp knives). Boy was I wrong. This thing will make a dull knife razor sharp in less than 30 seconds. It's super easy to use and feels very safe.

I highly recommend.

this thing rocks!
I'm a big Cooks Illustrated fan. Saw the review on America's Test Kitchen and jumped on this one. I own lots of overpriced underperforming kitchenware and gadgets. This thing does indeed perform. I have many different knives -- Forschner Fibrox, Henckels, etc...-- some pretty expensive. I have a $35 Henckels ceramic sharpener and a more expensive honing tool -- neither comes close to this simple device. I have sharpened all my knives with it and they are as close to razor sharp as they were when purchased. Gave this as a gift to a relative and will buy for others as the opportunity comes! For the price, it's a no-brainer.

Easy, quick, safe!
The only knife sharpener I'd ever used was the long skinny kind you sometimes could find with knife block knife sets. I'd gotten used to using that type, but when I looked for similar sharpeners, the price seemed kind of high and when I saw this Accusharp I was intrigued. I thought the price was excellent and the product arrived quickly, was easy to use, and felt really safe. It was comfortable and stable in my hand and I liked that the knife you were sharpening was to be held motionless on a counter top or table top. I highly recommend this product.

Sharp sharpener
It's easy to use and makes knives very sharp very quickly. I haven't tried to "slice a hair" but I bet my knives would now easily pass that test.
