I have been using DMT's sharpeners for years and can't find a better product out there! In the kitchen, its perfect because I never have to buy new knives, I can simply sharpen them and know that they will last longer. In the garden, my wife enjoys the sharp edge on her pruners when she sharpens them. About five years ago I bought her a pair of Felco pruners. Knowing that I wanted them to last, the DMT sharpener allows her to use them year after year without worries. I can't believe I used to sharpen mt scissors and knives without one of those slide through sharpeners. These diamond sharpeners are great.

I got this for my stepfather who has been using an electric sharpener on his crappy knives. I told him that if i gave him a real knife for his birthday i will also give jim a real sharpener. He agreed.

This one really does it's job well, after a short learning curve, you really see the difference in how fast it sharpers as well as how hard it is screw up a blade (compare to electic sharpener). All you need in a bit of practice to sharper at a certain angle and 5-10 minutes of dedication per side.

Really a great product

This DMT sharpener works well to keep all my knives sharpened. Also they have a helpful video on their website so show exactly how to use their product. They seem to want you to be satisfied with your purchases from them.

I had previously used a polishing stone to sharpen my knives. I bought this sharpener after trying it at a local hardware store and reading reviews. It does not need sharpening oil (which is rather messy) and only uses water while it is faster than a stone honing an edge. It's GREAT.

Great tool - but if you are used to either electric, pass through or rod type sharpeners, it will take some getting used to.

After learning how to use it correctly - it's great. Seriously sharp knives - you will find a whole new tool once your knives are truly sharp.
