As a tradesman I am use to sharpening tools (drills, chisels etc) and frankly this sharpener just does not work. The constuction is light weight and the sharpening media appears to be strips of abrasive which wear out quickly. The packaging details all that this sharpener will do - don't be fooled - like a lot of American products it 'talks a good game'.It may be effective on cheap knives but on a quality knife(say Wusthof)not so. I paid £23.95 some 4-5 years ago for this product and because of the foregoing I have not used it much and as such an expensive disappointment.
