Review on πŸ”ͺ SHARPAL 105N Versatile Sharpener for Precise Sharpening by Jamie Kamoso

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent but surprisingly brittle

A little less than a year has passed, the carbide has broken off. I don't know how that happened - I'm a generally tidy person and used to *just* sharpening kitchen knives and scissors, tinting razors. No garden tools. My guess is that this may have happened with old Japanese kitchen knives with broken blades (Japanese knives have harder steel). You can also use a good left-handed carbide tip (because I'm a little symmetrical). Since there is no preset edge angle, it can be used to sharpen blades as much as you like. A firm hand is required to maintain the existing angle and light pressure. Rough use will remove too much blade material.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Purity
