Product information
‐ Collapse this SectionSafe and easy to use, this two-stage knife sharpener requires nothing but a few easy strokes to keep blades performing in top nick. With a soft grip handle, and made with German precision.
- Place sharpener on a flat work surface. Hold the sharpener with one hand as indicated and the knife handle with the other. Insert knife blade fully into the slot at a 90° angle to the sharpener.
- Apply moderate downward pressure on the blade while pulling the knife toward you through the appropriate notch. Repeat this action, always pulling the blade from heel to tip (never back and forth) through either the carbide or the ceramic notch.
- Note: The first stage carbide (coarse) sharpens dull edges. The second stage ceramic (fine) provides a polished, razor sharp edge. A reasonably sharp knife may only require this light honing.

Good, sturdy sharpener
Item reviewed:
Review by Salome V. on 26 June 2013, 12 days after purchase
This sharpener works much better than others I've tried. The non-slip base grips nicely on my countertops, and the sharpening action is easy and smooth. I'm still struggling to sharpen knives with scalloped edges though - only time will tell whether the issue is with the sharpener or the user!
I would recommend this product to a friend.

Own numerous sharpeners, this is by far the most effective I've come across! The rubber base, to prevent slipping, is absolutely tops!!

Disappointing
Item reviewed:
Review by Rodney D. on 13 March 2021, over 1 year after purchase
I purchased this product in November 2018. Initially, it worked well. I do not use it often, but it has been becoming less effective over time. This week I got my 7 kitchen knives out to tweak them and the sharpener made every one of them blunt to the point that they can't be used. It has been relegated to the rubbish bin.
I would not recommend this product to a friend.

Review by Graham P. on 23 June 2022
I have had this sharpener for about 3 years.
It is not great anymore, the sharpening mechanism seems to have worn away and doesn't really sharpen anymore.
I would not recommend this product to a friend.

Simple and effective

Review by Johan M. on 8 December 2013, 13 days after purchase
Very simple to use. Solid but not cumbersome. No moving parts, no electricity required. Nice rubber foot. Sharpens blades quickly for my needs (rough edge). I don't use the ceramic sharpener.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Good job

Review by Randall P. on 17 December 2013, 14 days after purchase
For years I was an avid fan of my Ozitech Diamond Fingers. I loved the effortless sharpening and the great results. Then, it was discontinued. I held out as long as I could, trawling the internet for them but never satisfied with what some people wanted to charge. Finally I caved and figured that, since my primary knife is a Wüsthof, their sharpener would be the next best thing. Am I glad that I did! Although it takes some getting used to, the instructions are clear and the result is great. Gone are the days of struggling to slice a tomato while holding out for a good sharpener. I have one now.

Wusthof knife sharpener
Item reviewed:
Review by David S. on 25 March 2014, 11 days after purchase
This is proving an effective knife sharpener, combined with a sharpening steel. The big question is how long it retains this effectiveness, as most of these products tend to lose effectiveness after a period of time? Time will tell - so far so good!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
A step up
Item reviewed:
Review by Siraaj M. on 3 April 2014
Not usually 1 to review but this product deserves high praise for excelling where more popular brands haven't. Practical, comfortable and highly functional, it will please any sceptic. It makes most other knife sharpeners seem like mass produced gimmicks. It should be supplied with a pack of band aids, such is it's effectiveness. Excellent value for money.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Disappointed
Item reviewed:
Review by Robin H. on 3 September 2014, 16 days after purchase
I bought this product based on the reviews already posted. I took it home and tried it on 6 knives of different sizes that needed sharpening. The device DOES get the knives sharp to a point, and yes it is an improvement, however based on the rave reviews I was expecting more from it. For example the knives are sharp, but still struggle with slicing tomato. My most expensive knife does not struggle with tomato, so yes I am disappointed. Read more

Review by Mergalin P. on 10 December 2014, 12 days after purchase
Ease of use. Excellent design as weight is evenly distributed and hands are well protected. Knives are well sharpened but please do not be tempted to feel knife edge once sharpened, I learnt a bitter lesson!
I would recommend this product to a friend.

The best knife sharpener I've owned

Review by Shaun R. on 16 January 2015, 10 days after purchase
Works so well that the blades of my old knives are now sharper than they ever were. My newer sharper knives are now even sharper. It's very easy to use and very safe. I am very happy with my purchase.

Really good product

Review by Laura G. on 28 April 2015, 9 days after purchase
I haven't tried any other knife sharpeners but after reading all the reviews I decided to buy this one. It works really well! My 6 year old cooks knife that was practically useless is now slicing through tomatoes without a problem. Great to be able to maintain my other blades as well. Really good product that I would recommend to my friends.

Like a kid with a new toy :-) That was me... As soon as I arrived home I was sharpening every knife and scissor I could lay my hands on. I am embarrassed to say I even considered the butter knives ;-P.
Fantastic product at a fantastic price!

This item works like a dream and is very easy to use. Is sharpens knives in no time, has a rubberised underneath to prevent slipping and does not take up any space at all.
I was so impressed with the product that I recently purchased one for my mom too who absolutely loves it.
Definitely value for money!

I bought this about a year ago, and I love my Wusthof sharpener so much, I bought a second one as a gift for a friend this year.
It's very easy to use, and you can sharpen the entire length of the blade quickly and evenly.

The two stage sharpening of a knive works very good. I've had a few knives that I was ready to throw away and buy new ones, but this sharpener got them all very sharp again.

My knives are finally sharp again and it doesn't take a lot of work with this sharpener. I was expecting to cut my clumsy self accidentally while sharpening, but so far it has never happened, so the product not only does what it is made for, but is safe too.

Don't confuse this sharpener with the cheaper ones on the market - they cannot compare. This Wusthof one is quality and is a must for really sharp knives - essential for foodies.

Sharp sharp!
Item reviewed:
Review by Nick G. on 16 October 2019, 16 days after purchase
Worked really well at getting my knife blades back to their original sharpness, even after years of being sharpened with an average sharpener, which I think did more damage to the blades.. did not even need to take them for professional sharpening to get the edge back, as the coarse setting managed this, so recommended!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Gets the job done!

Review by Mandla M. on 7 June 2022, 15 days after purchase
This is convenient and quick. However, the best is still wet stone.
I also realised that my knives are simply old, and I need to replace them.
But this sharpener will prolong their use.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Great product.

Review by Nirvana J. on 9 November 2022
I've had mine for 5 years now and it still works great! It's quite sturdy and non-slip as well.
I guess it helps that I also have good-quality knives that I use on the sharpener. It's important to also use a honing rod to straighten out the blade of your knives as well.
Couldn't be happier with this sharpener.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Works well.

Review by Gill S. on 16 January 2023, 14 days after purchase
I bought this sharpener as I have a set of Wusthof knives.
I have only sharpened two of the knives and the sharpener seems to work well, time will tell.

Review by Keith A. on 18 February 2013, 11 days after purchase
I ordered the knife sharpener for a friend's 11 year old son's birthday. He loves to do wood carving. The birthday gift doubled up as a knife sharpener his mom could borrow from time to time for use in the kitchen.
It also has a non slip base, which makes using it so much simpler and easier.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
