Customer Reviews

Get your knives back to factory sharp It works extremely well and I can easily get my knives back to factory sharp easily and consistently. I would definitely save up for the 8in size. There is a surprising difference between 6 and 8 in especially since I'm primarily sharpening large kitchen knives. Than being said, 1 more try and it's going into storage. I haven't been able to get scary sharp with it. Factory sharp has always been great for me but I've recently been spoiled by scary sharp using Japanese waterstones. I haven't been able to achieve that sharpness with this system yet. 5Very pleased This is my first bench stone sharpening systems. I used to use a pull through specifically for my globals and an old v sharpener for my other cheaper knives. Although I have only used this system a couple days it is significantly more effective than my other choices. There is a learning curve but each time I use it I feel more comfortable and am getting better results. I like the fact that it depends on me how well it works..practice makes perfect :) this is well built very solid, my wife told me " it looks like it should be in a resteraunt kitchen" she meant it as a dig about its size, but I took it as a compliment about my new hardcore sharpening system.. It costs but I am very happy with it. I figure it is better to spend the money up front and have a life time of happiness then to go cheap and keep having to play catch up..IMHO.. 5Massive in size, but really easy to use This is the first sharpener of this size that I have ever owned; this thing is massive compared to your standard sharpeners. The build quality seems really good as the plastic seems sturdy and the stone quality appears very well made. On the 50008, you get two diamond stones and one Arkansas stone and a bottle of honing solution...do NOT use oil, use the provided solution, or I use water on the diamond stones. Due to the size, it takes some getting used to as I find myself only using a small portion of the stone and leaving a lot of available stone untouched. With the amount of use, I expect this to last my lifetime. I didn't even need a new sharpener/hone, it was more of an impulse buy, but I am glad I went with the larger stones. I even found myself sharpening scissors and kitchen knives that I had written off, but refused to throw away. Several hours later and everything in the house is sharp again.Freehand honing takes practice and time so don't get discouraged if you have to spend a lot of time on these stones. 5The Natalie Merchant of sharpening system's... I am just getting started (at 54) in sharpening knive's.One of my long time Friend's(in military together,Rev War living history etc) who was USA Green Beret and has hunted and trapped for decades steered me to diamond hones.I started with this set.Started off with a Case xx Trapper that has needed sharpening for to long.In a matter of minutes ,using the included angle guide,it was as sharp as I need it to be.Remember this was my first attempt in years and my first time with instruction etc.It was a pleasure and I ended up sharpening 2 K-Bars,a set of chisels and a pair of scissor's at one setting.We also purchased a Lansky 8'' Sharp Stick ceramic rod.I don't know the proper way to test sharpness,but when I was finished the knives (except the standard K-Bar)would slice paper and they wouldn't before.I've got to practice a lot more (especially on long blades)but this system is gonna make it simpler than I thought it could be.Would have given it 5 stars,but I've learned that once you say love it ,it'll break your heart...Nyuk,nyuk,nyuk.5JUN15 4Nice product; you might look at DMT's alternatives This is my first good knife sharpening system, and I am impressed with what you get for $83. The base and triangular insert are solid, with rubber feet to stabilize. The three stones really are two diamond plates and an Arkansas stone. The Arkansas stone is alright for runofthemill blades, but in my opinion isn't hard and aggressive enough for cutlery steel. Smith provides a bottle of their own lubricant with the stones; I actually like it better than honing oil (it seems to wash off with soap and water easily). I purchased a DMT D8EE 8-Inch Dia-Sharp Continuous Diamond Extra-Extra Fine and use this instead of the Arkansas stone for finishing. The DMT system has a bit more surface area, and is a bit more aggressive, while getting the same near-polish. I finish with a strop. 5Big ol stones Very nice stones, very large sharpening surface makes it very easy to sharpen very small knives to full sized kitchen knives. It may just be me But I cant get my knives to be easily hair shaving sharp. If I apply pressure when trying to shave hair it will come off but it is not razor sharp, but I am a newbie knife sharpener so maybe I will get better as time goes on. I got my kitchen knives sharp enough to cut tomatoes super thin without smashing out the guts so I am very happy with that. overall I would say buy this stone, it is pricey but if you want to learn to sharpen your own knives you may as well just get a nice set first instead of spending the money on the cheap versions and buying the nice one later anyways.OH AND FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY! don't buy the lansky oil for this stone, it is an oil based lubricant and right in the manual for the stones it says DO NOT USED OIL BASED HONING SOLUTIONS. the smiths oil is available on amazon and is not oil based, it is very nice and a bottle comes with the stone. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002F9N0NS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_6?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER 5It's the shave the hair off your arm kind of sharp you're looking for. This set of sharpening stones was exactly what I needed to sharpen my knives/cutlery to the point where they were able to shave the hair off my arm. (Yes I know, not exactly the safest way to test a nice, but it's still better then running your finger along the edge). Up until this point I had been using the quick, pull through type sharpening device for my knives. In all honesty they worked well, but only to a point. The pull through type knife sharpener is more of a stop gap until you can either send your knives off to the factory to get resharpened or you sharpen them yourself. In this case I did the latter and sharpened my knives myself.I used the three-stage progressive approach to this. First I used the Course stone to reset the angle of my knives and get their initial edge back. I followed this up by using the Fine stone to get the edge to a point at which you can stop if you want to, but if you're already taking the time to sharpen your own knives I'm willing to bet you won't. Neither did I and I finished up my sharpening session on the Arkansas stone to get my knives to the point where they were shaving the hair off my arm (and some dry skin because it's not humid at all in Colorado). I did each of the three phases with about 20 passes on each side of my knives, so 60 total. That time goes by fairly quickly and it's not like sharpening knives is really much of a chore anyway.This knife sharpening stone kit already comes with a 4 ounce bottle of Smith's Honing Oil, so there's no need to buy an additional one anytime soon. A little bit of the honing oil goes a long way and if you use to much on the stone you're eventually going to be swiping it off the top anyway, so use it sparingly when you're sharpening your knives, cutlery, tools, whatever you want to sharpen at the time. 5I really like the stability and options of this setup I really like the stability and options of this setup. I bought one for me and one for my god daughter who is getting to cool uncle ryan stuff ;-)The diamond are far superior (IMHO) for getting a knife to where it should be. It will reshape a blade with some elbow grease and some beers, and then finish it off with the ol' Arkansas stone, also an excellent must have for any knife collector, hoarder, or just can't control the urge "HAVE THAT KNIFE". I sharpened every knife in the house from Grandpa's ol hand me downs,my DPX HEST (love it), my Striders, to my high end kitchen knives. 5Excellent product and how I use it I m writing this review about 1.5 years after my purchase. In a nutshell, I think this is an excellent honing device and is well worth the investment for any person who likes to keep their knives sharp. Below are details on how I use the device for anyone who is interested.If you are new to sharpening knives, keep in mind that no matter what honing device you purchase, sharpening your knives takes practice and will likely be frustrating at first no matter what you re using. Regardless, my set of kitchen knives are of mediocre quality and after a good 5-10 minute sharpening with this device, they maintain their edge for about 2-3 weeks after at least daily dinner preparation + breakfast/lunch on the weekends. The knife edges would probably last longer if my wife took care of them properly when it was her turn to cook, but I figure we are even because I never put the toilet seat down. Nevertheless, the below approach has been successful for me over the past 1.5 years and I don t see this bench wearing out anytime soon. I sharpen about 7-8 knives every 2-3 weeks or so and have had just as much success with the various pocket knives I own.No matter the status of the knife, I always start with the coarse stone. The bench comes with a wedge, but you ll quickly find that one angle doesn t fit all knives and depending on the purpose of the knife, the angle will differ. So, to find the right edge, I ll first run the knife forward at a minimal angle with the edge pointing away from me and keep increasing the angle until it starts picking up the honing solution (which I always have a thin layer of on the stone). This is a decent approach when you re sharpening a knife for the first time and trying to figure out its angle, but it s not perfect. After enough practice, you ll learn to feel the right angle by both the sound and vibrations of the knife as you pass it across the stone.Once I have my angle down, I ll do about 20 to 30 strokes on one side of the blade, alternating between forward and backward passes with each stroke before doing the same on the other side. Some people suggest going straight up and down, but I find more success with passing the knife along a horizontal angle so that the entire blade crosses the stone with each stroke. The amount of pressure I use is about what I would need to push an elevator button.Before I switch to the next finer stone to repeat the process, I test the knife edge on a piece of paper. If the entire edge passes easily through paper, I know that my angle should be good. This should be the case even after your first pass with the coarse stone, which will give you coarser cuts visible via the frayed paper fibers, but should still be smooth and easy.. However, one caveat is that if both sides of the blade are not equally honed, the knife won t easily pass through the paper. This doesn t mean you need to start over, but that you might need to balance the edge. To determine what edge needs further honing, rub your thumb perpendicularly across the blade (never test the sharpness of a blade by running a finger down the edge, that is a good way to cut yourself) - the edge that feels rougher/grainier is the one that may need a few more strokes against the stone.Once I m done using the stones, I finalize the edge by running it about 30 times up and down each side of a leather strop that has decreasing grits at approximately the same angle I was using on the stones.Hope this helpful for people who are just as frustrated as I was when I first starting sharpening my knives. Once you figure it out, having sharp knives in the kitchen makes cooking so much more enjoyable. 5Keep It Sharp I offer a four star -Pros: Nice compact solution for a semi-professional sharping solution. Best for the home kitchen knives in my opinion with a secondary capability to sharpen tactical knifes. The three surfaces provided can take a bad knife to very very sharp depending on your skills.This solution offers the capability to take a very dull blade to a very sharp edge - you need some skills and practice to do this.-This is an OIL based honing solution - this means you apply oil to the stones (bottle is supplied) in order to use this. Oils is a double edged sword, first oil is messy and you need to deal with the excess and residue, on the flip side the oil has some benefit to keeping some metals from rusting.Other providers have stones that are water based and only requires the stone be soaked in water before use and moistened while used.Cons: This is an oil based system and is more messy than a water based honing solution.Bottom Line: This unit does the job but the user will need some practice, and deal with the oil for best results 4
