Review on 🔪 Wüsthof 2-Stage Portable Sharpener (Model 2922) - Optimize your Search! by Tiffany Powers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It is worth using it on expensive knives.

I have quite an extensive collection of Wüsthof Classic knives. I can't remember how much they all cost, but maybe $1,000 or so. (My 14-inch chef's knife alone cost over $250.) I've had them for about 15 years and in that time I've sharpened some of them, but not all because they don't all get used often. (Like a boning knife.) Recently I wanted to get another sharpener but had no idea who to trust locally so I thought about buying a sharpener. Luckily, I also bought a $3 knife from Home Goods to practice with. Based on the reviews, I bought a Chef's Choice 1520 electric knife. It scratched the sides of my practice knife and left a deep groove where I started, near the heel of the knife (same thing I've noticed with steak knives). I only did it professionally to test a specific local cuisine.) This Wüsthof manual sharpener had none of these problems. Simply slide the knives through any convenient slot and there's no scraping, no sawing back and forth (like the Chef's Choice 4643 manual) and they're sharp and scratch-free. appropriate.

Pros
  • New in my collection
