| I just had the opportunity to try this grinder out at a friends house. I sharpened my Emerson and Surefire Echo on it and holy crap they are indeed "scary sharp". I've never had them this sharp before and I love it. Both these knives have chisel grinds and the Ken Onion produces a convex grind. WOW I am impressed. I think I need this sharpener in my shop. I'm a diamond stone kinda guy but it's hard to argue with the ease and efficiency of the sharp maker. |

Quoted: Spent about an hour and sharpened all the knives in our church kitchen (about 35). Not shaving sharp, as many folks who work in there don't seem to get the idea that knife = sharp  , but put a nice edge on them quickly with an intermediate grit belt.Doc Now, I just make fun of them about it and don't bother. |
| Mine arrived on Saturday and since I have sharpened all of the wifes kitchen knives and some of my outdoor knives. Next I want to work on some axes and machetees. I think they are a great afordable product. Best to spend a little extra and get the Ken Onion model with the variblle speed motor. |

I have one...I used it on cheap knives for about 6 months to a year before i got the courage up to use it on a Bark River Bravo one that I just could not sharpen by stropping.
I pretty much used the two finest grit belts and had it set to 20 dg and was able to get it back to being hair shaving sharp.. |
