Great suction to hold it securely to your worktop. Does tend to remove quite a bit of steel during sharpening. Need to ensure you keep the blade upright as well as follow the curve of your knife at the tip. Good value.

This is the last knife sharpener I'll ever need

My girls (they're adults) kid me about how much attention I pay to my knives. I love cooking large meals for my family and I have my favorite knives. They simply must sharp. This sharpener is everything!! I have a knife from my mother's kitchen that I keep in a draw that I've never been able to sharpen to my liking...until now. Favorite kitchen gadget; its safe and effective. I really love it!!!

At 61 I wish I would have had this years ago. My scissors are like new.

It made my old and dull scissors like new. I have knives that are 50 years old and they are like new sharp knives and probably even better. I was so surprised at how well this little space saving sharpener works. Little things like this make me happy.

Super value for the money and it works well

This sharpener is tiny and fits in a drawer. It will sharpen even serrated knives, axes, scissors and much more and does it easily. It's small and mighty! Would make a nice gift and isn't heavy.

Great

If you need a knife sharpener you need this one. We had one for several years and got another. If you go to cut tomato and it don’t want to cut through just run your knife through the sharpener a couple of times and it will slice right through it. Best little sharpener around. Highly recommend

Brilliant

It really does work!I bought expensive Global knives in 2017, and they were feeling a bit blunt now. A few goes in this thing and they are like new!
