We sharpened several different types of knives in our testing, everything from a Benchmade Griptilian to a Japanese Shun chef’s knife, and were seriously impressed with the results. Each blade went from usable but dulling to slicing effortlessly through paper in less than a minute. Ease of Use In use, the rods can also be quite flexible and are similarly fiddly to get set up each time you want to resharpen your blade. The case is again cheap plastic, which does the job just not very well. The stones themselves are actually pretty good, although the finger grips could be tweaked and improved.
