This is a product that is worth more than it's price.

I've sharpened pocket knives, axes, and machetes. I'm in the tropics and it has held up well.

A bargain at twice the price.

This thing rocks. If you're someone who enjoys oiling up the ol' sharpening stones, can hold a blade at a precise angle for a half an hour or so, and have the patience to do same, don't bother. If, however, you fall into the category of people who don't have that sorta patience, have zero luck with sharpening steels, or care more about having a sharp blade than lookin' cool workin' the stones or steels, you'll love this gadget.

I put more than adequate edges on my henckel and sabatier knives in no time. The edges were a bit rough to look at, but they worked. And that's what I care about. Have some realistic expectations, and you'll appreciate what this thing does.

This tool works more like a steel than a sharpener. If you have high-quality blades and want razor sharp edges, you'll be disappointed with this tool. The ceramic wheel simply isn't hard enough to sharpen hardened metal knives.

I bought my RollSharp for a Mac knife and didn't really expect it to sharpen my other knives. But I couldn't resist trying it and now have a wonderful collection of really sharp knives that take little effort to keep that way. I no longer wait for my husband to get out his stone. It doesn't look like much, but it sure does perform.
