Classic Ikon 2-Stage Hand Held Knife Sharpener

Works really well puts a nice sharp edge on your knives

I bought this sharpener to look after my new Wustof knives. The knives are expensive and I didn’t want to risk using an inappropriate sharpening tool. The Euston sharpener is perfect for Wustof knives and does the job perfectly. The knives come out just like new.

Actually sharpens knives Most sharpeners claim to sharpen knives but rarely do this one does. Very Expensive though needs price drop

We’ve been using outlet daughters wusthof sharpener for years so thought we’d better buy our own! It’s does a great job on our wusthof knives.

We've tried numerous knife sharpeners and over the last two years we've built up a decent kitchen set of knives from Wusthof. Went for their knife sharpener due to others failing poorly. Does the job, is sturdy and easy to hold.

Was great the first couple of times of use but now the fine sharpener has worn away after very light use and makes the knife worse.

This is a quality bit of kit. Very pleased with the build quality and finish. Made a good job of sharpening a willing chef knife. Feels safe in use.

This really isn't a good sharpener, after using this sharpener twice it no longer sharpens my knife but infact blunts them, because the sharpening teeth have gone flat, I really didn't expect this from wushtoff. I managed to sharpen 3 knives from this before it ruined my 4th, which is. expensive for the price I paid for this and disappointing because I even used Wushtoff Ikon knives on it, not just any knife.

Aiguiseur WÜSTHOF – Efficace dans le temps. Acheté en 2017, utilisé régulièrement jusqu’en 2025, et il fonctionne toujours parfaitement. Il aiguise tous les couteaux, quelle que soit la marque, avec une précision constante. Solide, simple d’utilisation, aucune perte de performance avec le temps. Je recommande sans modération.

Ho acquistato questo prodotto la settimana scorsa e, come sempre, è arrivato in un battibaleno. Affila i coltelli che è una meraviglia, del resto il marchio è garanzia di qualità. Si appoggia su un piano di lavoro e le due parti inferiori che poggiano sul piano di lavoro sono dotate di materiale gommoso antiscivolo, per cui non ci sono problemi di "slittamenti" pericolosi. L'impugnatura è ergonomica e molto comoda. E' assai simile al manico di un normale coltello con i tradizionali rivetti a vista. L'affilatura avviene in due passaggi, detti COARSE, il primo, e FINE, il secondo (in inglese), e può essere fatta sia dai destrimani che dai mancini, perché le due fessure sono uguali comunque si giri il prodotto. Ovviamente non va usato per lame seghettate. I passaggi si effettuano partendo da fondo lama (la parte più vicina al manico) e tirando il coltello verso di sé fino alla punta della lama, senza interrompere il movimento, che deve essere sicuro e senza indugi, ma anche allo stesso tempo dolce e senza premere troppo. Dopo 3 o 4 passaggi della lama nella fessura COARSE si effettuano altri due passaggi su FINE e la lama è pronta per lavorare di nuovo perfettamente affilata. Consiglio questo prodotto, l'ho usato subito ed il vecchio affilatore comprato all'outlet lo regalerò a qualcuno. Su Amazon è disponibile anche il modello 4346 che costa qualcosina meno e dovrebbe essere un po' inferiore, anche se i corpi affilanti sono gli stessi. Valutate voi, ma si va sul sicuro.

So let me start off buy saying I’m classically trained in culinary arts and have twenty years experience. That being said I want to say I believe most if not all electric knife sharpeners are expensive trash that take way more material off than necessary. A whetstone and/or a diamond coat and ceramic steel with a honing steel to remove any burrs on the edge is the best way to sharpen a knife. The latter method can be used to effectively sharpen a serrated knife as well depending on the size of the serrations and the diameter of the steel but I digress. I bought this to see how effective it would be compared to using a whetstone for a straight edge blade. To my surprise pretty close. I don’t know how anyone could be so fail with this in the one star reviews. Epic stupidity perhaps is the only plausible reason, so let me state some things that I think are seemingly obvious. 1) You can’t use this to sharpen a Damascus steel knife (like shun or yakushi) you’ll ruin the pattern and the bevel angle is going to be different. I’d recommend using knives like global or wusthof for this sharpener. 2) Hold the knife straight, the angle is set for you you, take care to keep it perpendicular to the sharpener during the stroke. 3) Apply a light, even, firm degree of force just slightly more pressure than the weight of the knife applies itself. Remember you’re removing steel and the more pressure you apply the more steel you’re removing, a light pressure will give a better edge just enough to keep the pressure firm and even during your stroke. More lighter strokes will be more effective than a few forceful ones (which could damage your blade). 4) Drawn the knife toward you from the back toward the tip not back and forth. 5) No matter what type of sharpener you use, you should use a honing steel after and between sharpenings; and watch some videos if you don’t know how to use one. —If you use it as directed it will give you a great sharp edge very near to the original edge. Holding it at the wrong angle using a sawing method with too much pressure will almost certainly damage your knife and I guarantee you that any of the “experts” who say it damaged their knifes are not experts at all. Just FYI I’m not getting any kickbacks from Wusthof so this is a completely unbiased review. Like any product it needs to be used correctly. This one is fairly easy to use and very effective without having a learning curve that other methods have. Even knowing how to use other methods I use this far more often. Maintain your edges, your knives will last you a lot longer and don’t EVER use the blade of the knife in place of a bench scraper across a cutting board. I see people doing that and I cringe, it’s the quickest way to destroy your edge.

I bought this specifically for my wusthof knife. It just doesn’t work. When you ask to return it, they ask for a video to show them how you operate it, but amazon won’t let you upload any files in support section so you can’t return it! Waste of money
