I have purchased about 5 sharpeners (black ceramic, 4 diamond sharpeners) that were supposed to sharpen ceramic knives. My wife brought this model back from Japan just recently and it sharpened my two ceramics like none of the others. Like the first reviewer said almost as sharp as factory. My big knife had a small nick in it and the directions explained how to grind it out and it worked. Ignore the others and get this one. Battery powered which worried me, but no problems were encountered.

I really did not expect it to work! It puts a beautiful edge on my Kyocera a knives. The edge is very close to factory. I tried to sharpen with my with my various diamonds to no avail. This is an impressive product and the first real option to sending your knives back for a factory sharpening.

I bought this as a gift and the recipient, absolutely loves the ability to sharpen their ceramic knives themselves. At first thought everyone was cautious as to the machines ability, but after running a severely dull knife through it a few times, it came back to life and was able to be used. The only issue is that some knives have a continuous edge from the tang to the tip and those you can't really get in there to sharpen, so this works with some ceramic knives.

Works great!
I had read some reviews that said this didn't work very well. However, I sharpened my Kyocera vegetable knife and it's just as sharp as when I first purchased it. Read more

I have my old knife back.
I was on the verge of either tossing my first ceramic Santoku and buying a replacement or sending it to Kyocera for resharpening. Either solution seemed suboptimal. Read more

Knife sharpener for your ceramic knives from Amazon
This sharpener is fabulous. It's easy to use and small enough to stash. When I bought my ceramic knives there were no sharpeners available. Read more

Hard to use, takes many many passes
Not impressed. It is difficult to get the blade far enough in to reach the stone, the slots are very narrow, and then it took 3 times as many passes as the instructions said to get... Read more
