All kitchen and sporting knives, whether professional quality or inexpensive, need a blade tune-up now and then. This electric sharpener produces razor-sharp edges using the same rapidly rotating Sapphirite grinding wheels used by professional shops. A two-stage system allows knives to be ground and sharpened on the Stage 1 half of the machine, and then honed on the Stage 2 half. Blade guides hold the knife at the ideal sharpening angle for each side of the blade, as it is drawn slowly towards the user and kept parallel to the countertop. The sharpener is suitable for knives made of alloy, carbon, or stainless steel; it is perfectly normal for sparks to fly when knives of high carbon steel come in contact with the Sapphirite wheels. Non-electric serrated knives that are only serrated on one side can also be sharpened with this machine. Three suction cups on the bottom hold the sharpener securely on a table or countertop, and two receptacles underneath catch metal filings for disposal. The sharpener measures 8-1/4 by 5-3/4 by 4 inches, and is covered by a two-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri
Awsome and at a great price!!! (2009-01-06)
Was a little leary about this product but upon receipt and reading the directions carefully as previous reviewers had specified I am so happy with everything about it. To whomever said the motor kept stopping - it's in the directions - you're putting too much pressure on the knife - let the product do it's job!! Highly recommend this sharpener.

The Presto Pro EverSharp works quite well. Because I have always "sort of" sharpened my knives, I was able to skip "Stage 1." For such a small sharpener, I am completely satisfied with how it sharpens and it is easy to store.
EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE (2008-12-21)
I have tried many sharpeners. This one results in a perfect cutting edge and is easy to use. It's by far the best I have ever had.
My knives are new again! (2008-12-21)
Very simple to use. It will remove a lot of metal if used too frequently but I can't see using this sharpener but once or twice a year even under heavy use.

This does exactly what it says it will do. Reasonably priced as well.
