This is a REALLY nice knife sharpener. I'm usually skeptical of sharpening gadgets from knife makers, because most end up being just re-branded cheap junk from other gadget makers. This one though features the beautiful and comfortable Classic IKON handle, a real cast aluminum housing (most gadgets in this price range have chromed plastic bodies!), two diamond/ceramic stages (one diamond coarse, one ceramic fine), as well as a separate scissors slot (perfect for sharpening your kitchen shears). I like it!
Very easy to use: the rods are all preset at the correct angle (it looks to be 20 degrees to me, but they don't publish the exact angles).
It also comes really nicely packaged, making it a great gift. |
