[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sharpener has cleaned up the blades on our knives, but it may take a while before they are extremely sharp. I am still glad that I made the purchase, and it will make our steak knives more useful.

I have never been trained to use a honing steel properly so this pull through sharpener solved my problem. No way can you make a mistake and ruin your blade! The sharpener is already preset to put the proper angle back onto your blade and it also can do both Western and Eastern style knives.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical about purchasing as I just bought new knives, however I was able to use it on all my kitchen knifes that were older and it gave them all such a refreshing sharpness that I haven't seen in years. Worth the money to have forever and keep all those once dull knives sharp.

This is the easiest way to sharpen your collection of knives. Whether you need to use Western style slots or the Easter style slots, this sharpener has you covered. Great to store in a drawer by your knife set so you will remember to use weekly for honing and as needed for sharpening. I love the ease and comfort of this hand held sharpener.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sharpening knives is an intimidating process. I remember my dad sitting for a long time with different sharpening stones. I don’t have the patience but this was easy and fast and the result is a sharp knife and in the words of my dad, a sharp knife is a safe knife!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only two cons are the size of the actual sharpener and the stability of the sharpener. The grip handle is one and large, the dual sharpening areas for Standard vs. Asian knifes is convenient. The stability of the sharpener is a bit sensitive when you are applying low pressure during the fine sharpening. The Pros: everything else, the Zwilling sharpener is MUCH better than the Pampered Chef version of a sharpening tool. Our primary knife is well loved, used multiple times daily, as this is the first time in four years we have been able to restore a genuinely sharp blade, Thank You.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wh at I like the most about this is how easy it is to apply a razor sharp edge to your knives. Normally I did all my sharpening via whetstone and it’s great just being able to keep up with my knives without having to be so concerned about my speed force and especially angle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a Lansky Knife Sharpening Kit that works well but it’s time consuming. With this Zwilling 4-Stage Knife Sharpener, sharpening my knives was quick and easy. Definitely recommend the kit for anyone that wants a sharp knife.

Tried it on 2 of my Zwilling Knives and it wrecked both of them. I tried the Japanese side on my 5.5" Zwilling Santoku, and it chipped the edge really bad. I thought maybe it was a fluke or I did something wrong, or maybe the Japanese side was defective. So I tried the standard side on my 4" pairing knife... same problem, took a bunch of little chips out of the blade. I'm super disappointed with the product, and I'm really upset it damaged 2 of my knives instead of improving them. I'll add some images when I get home later.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Buying valuable knifes is one thing, keeping them well maintained the other. Especially in the US there are not so many skilled knife sharpening services around. Since everything is about use and trash here. This tool helps to keep your knife sharp without special skills.
