It took a few tries to get the hang of the sharpening, but after than it is the best, fast and easy to use. I would recommend it to all those who want to keep their knives sharp.

It is a top quality product. I like that fact that I can sharpen serrated blades as well as regular ones. And there is no guess work in how to do it. A very efficient product. i have even sharpened some of my sewing scissors, and it works great!

When you spend an obscene amount of money on good knives you hope they will keep their edge forever - but the reality is, all knives need sharpening sooner or later. I invested in this Chef's Choice 3-stage knife sharpener based soley on the reviews posted and know it was a wise decision. The sharpening power is impressive and the housing materials are substantial enough for a long life. I'm counting on this being one of my most important kitchen staples.

I just recieved my Chef choice knife sharpener in the mail and got out all of my work knives. I have a wide selection of chef knives ranging from Henkels to Wushof and Global. I was very happy with the way this machine performed. All of my knives are RAZOR sharp once again. Read the instructions, each slot ( 1 -2 -3 ) have a purpose. It was very easy to use. I highly recommeded it to anyone that is thinking of buying one. You will never have dull knives again. I did not know that Chef choice makes a commercial type sharpener. Wow, if mine works as good as it does, that one must be pretty awesome. Thank's once again for a very good product.

The sharpener was easy to use and quickly sharpened all my knives to as good as new (or possible better!)

This device sharpens everything beautifully and easily. If you have a good knife collection it is a 'must have'

I thought this was a bit pricey for a knife sharpener but it works great. I'm glad we bought it.

While attending culinary school our chef instructors told us daily how important it was to always have our knives sharpened. I have used many models and find this one to be the best by far. It is very easy to use and sharpened my 20+ knives in less than 30 minutes. I recommend this to any type of chef from the stay at home mom to the most professional. ENJOY!!

WORKS VERY WELL AND DIRECTIONS ARE EASY. I JUST WISH I HAD KNOWN THAT THE EDGESELECT 130 WAS AVAILABLE AND WOULD HAVE PURCHASED IT.

This knife sharpener is easy to use and looks great in crome on the countertop. I am guilty of letting my knives get VERY dull and never learned the stone sharpening methods which I never would have had time to do anyway. I spent 90 mins out fo the box sharpening two full set of knives however, they had been dull for several years prior to my finally buying this product. I must say, it is wonderful to actually have usable knives (and they get sharp as heck) in my kitchen again!

Have always wanted a professional knife sharpener and now have finally found one that works as advertised.

Well-designed and easy to use. Includes three stages, two of which aren't usually necessary for everyday use, but handy for those once-in-a-while re-edgings. Lightest (everyday) stage is also capable of sharpening serated knives, a particularly handy feature.

Im a bit on the line in giving this a good value rating, because it is very expensive. After sharpening on my own, Ive decided to give my full wusthof collection a proper sharpening.

The kit works great, my only concern is the plastic guide that takes a good gouging eachtime the knife runs through...

Knives dont look sharp, but dont kid yourself, they are razor sharp after taking it through the process.

I had previousl owned the two stage Chef Choice sharpener. It was a good product. This one is much better. Stage-1 is very strong and easily sharpens 440A edges.That is the hardest steel that they use in cutlery and surgical tools. Stage-2 is the one that you will mostly use for your straight edges. Use stage one only if the knife is in terrible shape. I am amazed at how Stage-3 sharpens the serrated edges. This is a wonderful product.I like the silver one, it seems to be more sturdy.

Dear Sirs: I'm am so glad you e-mailed me back. I love the sharpner, it's so easy to use. Sincerely, Larry C. Justice

Sharpened two sets of knives and was impressed....
time will tell if it's worth it.

Best sharpener I've ever used. The first time sharpening a knife on this device took rather long. It required many more passes through the first and second stage than recommended in the instruction manual. I'm sure that has to do with putting the right sharpening angle on the knife. But once sharpened the knife was exceptionally sharp, almost razor like; much sharper than when I first bought the set of knifes. It's a snap to maintain the sharpness by just running it through the third stage a couple of times. The sharpener is relatively expensive, but well worth the money if you have a nice set of kitchen knives that you want to remain useful. This is a good value when you consider how expensive it is to take a set of knives to a professional sharpening shop. Plus you're not without your knives while they are away getting sharpened.

I had some very, very dull knives and although the sharpener does leave a few scratches on the blade, I now can use these knives again.

Wow!! does this ever sharpen my knives!! Even the oldest, most used knife came out sharp as new. I even sharpened one old knife that we use in the garden that was dull as can be, and it came out razor sharp.An easy to use,fun to use product.

This sharpener hones the blade to the correct angle without producing temper-destroying heat. Only a few seconds on the diamond homing discs are required to remove significant metal. The third wheel is a leather-like strop that puts the final, razor-sharp edge, on the blade. The edge produced is extremely sharp and durable. Running the blade through the third
