Pros

  • Your best results will come from buying a Worksharp Precision Adjust or even a WorkSharp guided field sharpener and learning to do this yourself.
  • An easy way to start is a guided sharpener like the Spyderco Sharpmaker or Worksharp Precision Adjust.
  • I use a WorkSharp Precision adjust and dont have issues on concave or convex curves. You may have to adjust where the blade is gripped and do each side in 2-3 stages but it works for me.
  • by using the basic $60 WS system, with a decent strop and some know-how, you can attain vicious edges with fewer stones.
  • It's great. You can go to worksharp's website and order parts as needed (replacement stones are in your future - but they cost 6-8 bucks)

Cons

  • I have this with the standard kit of the three. I quite like it. My only real minor complaints about it are that the magnet that holds the rod on isn't quite strong enough for me to not occasionally yank it out and related to the first,...
  • It’s good for smaller knives. The angles get off if you’re using it on large (6+ inches) kitchen knives. It’s great for pocket knives.
  • It IS good, but you need this to make it great. It has too much flex without the brace, but it's rock solid with.

I have this with the standard kit of the three. I quite like it. My only real minor complaints about it are that the magnet that holds the rod on isn't quite strong enough for me to not occasionally yank it out and related to the first, I have to lube the rod quite often. It does a great job of sharpening though.

it's one of the most recommended sharpeners because people like it and it gets the job done

Get a guided sharpener like a Worksharp Precision Adjust. A pull through sharpener will take off more material than necessary and typically do a poor job.
