great super quick sharpening.... but i do prefer the ken onion version.....
I have tried a number or different sharpening techniques from diamond stones to just grinders and I think this is the best option for the following reasons:

1) Technique. Using stones depends on a user's technique. I had an easy time getting the angle right at the beginning of my stroke but trouble maintaining the angle perfectly. This Worksharp tool requires a little technique too, but not nearly as much.

2) Sharpness. I wish I still had a link to this, but a steel nerd and knife guy did testing where he compared knives sharpened by a professional hand-sharpener to knives sharpened with this tool. This tool provided a sharper knife.

3) Durability of edge. That razor sharpness in 2) is actually gimmicky since that last a few cuts at most. The real issue is how long the edge lasts. A grinder produces a concave edge and that lasts the least long. Stones make a flat edge. These belt sanders produce a convex edge that last the longest before dulling.

This comes with guides for sharpening knives to scissors to free hand sharpening. I thought about the Ken Onion edition to dial in the angle but I really don't need that level of control.

The Ken Onion does shears/scissors. Sorry but I don't know if this model does. I do have the KO model and use it a lot.
