5.0 out of 5 stars knives and axes?, September 20, 2006

By	S. Coales "moneypitminer" (NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

eh? You seriously think I'm going to use the same thing to sharpen the Henckels 4 star knives I use to prepare family meals AND the axes I use to chop wood?

Seriously. This sharpener will reset just about any blunted knife or axe to a finely honed edge.

It does just a good a job on a fine filleting knife as it does on my favorte chopping axe - I just have to remember to clean it before I switch uses.

Now if only they made a lawnmower that could julienne vegetables....

4.0 out of 5 stars A Reasonable Substitute for a Whetstone, April 4, 2008

By	K. Beach "KRB" (Minnesota) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If one really wants to put a razor sharp edge on an axe or knife, a set of diamond whetstones is the best way to do it. This painstaking manual process requires time and proper technique. Beware: a razor sharp edge is exactly that and not to be trifled with. On the other hand, if "pretty darn sharp" is good enough...and it should be for most utility purposes...a dedicated sharpening tool like the Fiskars will get the job done quickly and with minimum risk to one's fingers. There are a number of similar products on the market. This one comes from a reputable manufacturer at a good price point.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy This! Not a new Knife!, November 7, 2006

By	Cm Partin "dream chef" (Mobile, AL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought my first Fiskar sharpener from the owner of MAC knives. He told me that this was all I needed as a professional chef to keep my knives sharp and in top shape as to angle, knicks, ect.... He was right. Don't pass this up. You really do not need anything else. No kidding and just $12.00. Chef Mark
