I don't know much about knives but I bought one last year and it makes my knives sharp with lots of satisfying noise and sparks.
Hehehehehehe love it!
No, it will ruin the knives.
These things are ok for cheap knives or fishing knives but for decent ones you can get something like a Spyderco Sharpmaker.
Simple to use and will give you a razor sharp edge without any damage and little effort.
They've gone up in price but you can sometimes get them a lot cheaper on Amazon.
For quality knife I should spend a little more time with whetstone :)
Also the Furi sharpeners work well.
Sorry any kind of drag-through sharpener, can straighten a wire edge, or put some teeth on a duller edge and make it feel sharper. But it's not doing the same thing that a whetstone (or whetstone based system like sharpmaker or edgepro or lansky) does to a dull blade - ie actually sharpen it properly. On expensive knives I really would recommend against a pull through sharpener.
Sharp price. Thanks OP .
I do not know if this is the same knife sharpener they talking about but got some bad reviews at the whirlpool.
You don't really need reviews to tell you something that grinds metal off a knife isn't going to be good for them.
All sharpening is removing metal from a knife though?
Not like a grinding wheel, which is what these things are.
Good for cheap stuff or lawn mower blades, but with quality knives they will destroy them.
To put it quite bluntly, this is a pretty sharp deal, thanks OP!
In a moment of weakness I bought a similar device from Bunnings a few years ago (Ozito branded I think, visually very similar). Turns out I didn't have a single tool crappy enough that I was happy to touch with the thing. Low power, very rough grinding stone, flimsy plastic body doesn't hold chisels squarely. You get a better result freehand with a bench grinder.
Very cheap price, but for something useless, so no bargain IMHO.
Thanks my very first thought when I saw this was - why not use a bench grinder that can also be used for a lot of other things.
These are just rubbish, like the poster effgee I purchased the Ozito one and after touching a chisel to the wheel once I listed it on eBay.
They're nasty quality, flimsy, the grinding surfaces are rubbish and they do nothing but destroy good tools.
For anyone interested Bunnings are price matching Aldi with their Ozito model with 3 years warranty instead of 1.

Should I risk sharpening quality knives with this tool?
