Product Name: | Work Sharp Knife & Tool Sharpener [Frustration-Free Packaging] |
Product Description: | The Original Knife & Tool Sharpener is the first knife sharpener designed to sharpen every knife you own. Using flexible abrasive belts, the sharpener is able to sharpen not just straight bladed knives, but also curved knives, tanto blades, filet knives, serrated knives, gut hooks and virtually any other shape of knife blade. The Knife & Tool Sharpener uses precision angle sharpening guides to ensure that you get the proper angle every time. Two guides are included: a 50° guide for hunting and outdoor knives (25° per bevel) and a 40° guide for thinner blades and kitchen knives (20° per bevel). Professional knife makers use flexible belts to put a razor sharp edge on their blades, and now you can have the same technology at home to use any time your knives get dull. You may already have other sharpening methods, but never before has a knife sharpener been able to quickly and easily sharpen this broad range of knives to such extremely sharp results. Sharpening scissors requires the use of the scissor guide. Freehand sharpening cannot create the consistent edge necessary for scissors to cut. The scissor guide is set at 65° based on the most common scissor edge angles. The guide is designed for common "household" size scissors, including kitchen and shop shears. A 60° angled scissor guide is available on the optional 40° Outdoor Knife Guide. It is possible to regrind damaged scissor blades to 65° or 60° angle regardless of the original angle of the edge |

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.
What's the difference between this and the Ken Onion version?
If only the manufacturer made replacements!
