Easy Way To Sharpen Most Kitchen & Sport Knives To Razor Sharp Edge
Professional 2 Stage System Precision Grids Perfect Sharpening Angle Then Fine Hones & Polishes The Edge
Special Sapphirite Sharpening Wheels Are Made From Utra Hard Material Used In Professional Sharpening Shops
No Guess Blade Guides Automatically Hold The Blade At Proper Sharpening Angle
Amazon.com Review: 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

Rating: - Good Product, But Be Careful
I've used the Presto about 3 times. Very good product. I don't understand those who say the motor is under-powered. If anything, you need to be careful, as others have noted, about not over-sharpening, and thereby ... Read More
Rating: - Gets them sharp, but too agressive.
The Presto Pro EverSharp has never failed to get any of my knives sharp but it takes a lot of metal off your knife to get there. Motor gets rather hot after you use it for a few minutes so sharpening every knive in ... Read More
