I have never been able to use other styles of knife sharpeners to sharpen my knives. However this product allows me to easily sharpen my knife effortlessly, without prior knowledge or required skills. Awesome product quality and incredibly simple to use!

Awesome knife sharpener. It sticks well and stays on counter. Always available that way to sharpen knives, and it sharpens amazingly and easily.

I bought this because no one else in the house would sharpen knives and they simply mistreat the blades. As a result, every time I wanted to slice something up, it was a chore and I would have to stop and manually sharpen the blade.I've tried a bunch of these types of sharpeners over the years, and while I didn't have high expectations, I figured it was better than nothing.What I discovered was that despite being all plastic, it is surprisingly sturdy. I've been beating on this thing for almost exactly 3 years now and it works as well as it did on day 1. It's crazy easy to use. It gives a very, very sharp edge in very little time using very little pressure (see note about this). The suction cup defies all expectations; I haven't ever had a suction cup that would actually hold something for any amount of time, yet this one keeps grabbing and once it is stuck, it is stuck (smooth surfaces, of course).Note about pressures: There's a temptation to apply downward pressure to the blade as you drag it through the 'V'. If you do this, it can cause the blade to skip instead of smoothly glide through the sharpening surfaces, and this will result in something of a serration being applied to the edge. I did this on a couple of my knives before I pulled my head out of my backside. I refinished the edges and all is well. I've found that just the lightest of pressure (the blade's weight in most instances) will be more than adequate, and just a few pulls of the blade through the sharpening surface will give you an incredibly sharp edge.If you're sharpening a truly dull knife, set aside about 5 minutes to just let the blade glide through the sharpening surfaces and you'll be good to go. The initial re-shaping does take more time to achieve before you can easily maintain a sharp edge. My old $3 cleaver that I bought from AAFES in Japan is razor sharp, and had been dulled to the point of being more of a lever, which had me using it more to make barbaric chops. Now I used it not only for chopping but also for fine slicing where applicable and the edge rivals some of my most expensive knives.In addition to all that good stuff, it is highly portable as it fits in the palm of your hand. I will be getting another one to keep in my truck for when I'm out doing field work and put my knife/blades to work (usually abusive... I'm not gentle with my knives). It's good to have something like this that truly does a good job of putting an edge on a blade without requiring any complex articulation or tomfoolery, and in such a small package.10/10 would recommend.

This sharpener is not the best. Did not work so well for me.

I really like how securely this locks down on smooth surfaces. Doesn't budge while I sharpen my knives.

Suction is not great. Description said to use on nonporous surface. I tried it on melamine laminate and found it lost suction after drawing the knife through the sharpener three to four times (multiple attempts). Granite counter top worked. It does sharpen the blade but there are other hand steadied poducts that do a better job.

Small and easy to use, compact able so I could use and take places of i needed to.

My kitchen knives are so sharp! Will buy again<3
