this thing rocks!
I'm a big Cooks Illustrated fan. Saw the review on America's Test Kitchen and jumped on this one. I own lots of overpriced underperforming kitchenware and gadgets. This thing does indeed perform. I have many different knives -- Forschner Fibrox, Henckels, etc...-- some pretty expensive. I have a $35 Henckels ceramic sharpener and a more expensive honing tool -- neither comes close to this simple device. I have sharpened all my knives with it and they are as close to razor sharp as they were when purchased. Gave this as a gift to a relative and will buy for others as the opportunity comes! For the price, it's a no-brainer.

Easy, quick, safe!
The only knife sharpener I'd ever used was the long skinny kind you sometimes could find with knife block knife sets. I'd gotten used to using that type, but when I looked for similar sharpeners, the price seemed kind of high and when I saw this Accusharp I was intrigued. I thought the price was excellent and the product arrived quickly, was easy to use, and felt really safe. It was comfortable and stable in my hand and I liked that the knife you were sharpening was to be held motionless on a counter top or table top. I highly recommend this product.

Sharp sharpener
It's easy to use and makes knives very sharp very quickly. I haven't tried to "slice a hair" but I bet my knives would now easily pass that test.
