Knives dulled the sharpener
I am really disappointed in this sharpener. The knives seem to have worn away the fine stone on one side, and as a result I can't sharpen any of my knives

Sharpener still in question
To date, I’m not have any success keeping my new Wusthof 8” classic chef’s knife sharp at all. If anything, It feels like it had dulled it. I have been a sculptor/carver and have other sharping devices that keep my chisels razor sharp along with a power wet wheel sharpener/honer for my knives. I thought this hand tool would be more convenient and close to where I prep for cooking. I even looked up video tutorials ! I am no where close to how sharp the knife should be as illustrated, slicing paper etc. (which I can do with my chisels btw). I haven’t giving up yet and will keep trying the Wusthof hand held tool.

Sharp knives make cooking easier
This sharpener is working really well for me. I have gotten my knives back to being a breeze to use and am only sorry it took me so long to realize I needed this! Other sharpening methods were time consuming and took much more caution.

Decent Sharpener
Easy to use.
Design is comfortable to hold.
Rubber bottom prevents sharpener from moving.

Sharp
I've had my Wusthof chef's knife for about 30 years and never sharpened it or properly honed it. Ran it through the sharpener side of the 2 stage once and the honing side 4-5 times and now the knife is sharp. Cut through an eggplant with skin. Couldn't do that before. The 2 stage is really easy to use.
