Best knife sharpener
Love this sharpener. Had an old fashioned sharpening bar and I never could figure it out like my daddy could, but this one you just put a little water in the cartridge and it sharpens and cleans the cartridge at the same time!

Did a great job
Easy to use. I sharpened all of my 8-year old Global knives, and there was a very marked improvement. This is much better and more efficient than the whetstone I used to use (yes, an old fashioned whetstone). This gets just the right angle.

Easy to use sharpener
A straightforward and easy-to-use sharpener that brings back bite to the blade of my Global knife. It didn't sharpen non--Global knives as well, but it still improved their sharpness. Good value for the price.

Great sharpener!
For the first time ever, I've been able to get my knives really close to new. A very nice tool.

Sharp gadget
This sharpener is handy to have around and seems to sharpen quite well. I will have to see how long the edge holds.

Can this be used daily?
BEST ANSWER: I suppose it could. It is sturdy enough. I only use mine as often as it is needed. After use, my knives stay sharp for about a week of daily use around the kitchen. I'm sure that for a pro or heavy home user you would likely use it more often than weekly. For reference, my knives are also Global.

Does this replace a honing rod?
BEST ANSWER: you will still want a honing rod for quick and easy blade maintenance. This is a super fast, streamlined, and effect if tool for minor sharpening weekly/monthly/yearly depending on frequency of use. In my kitchens we will use it every two weeks and a honing rod daily

What is the main advantage/disadvantage of this model compared to Global Universal Knife Sharpener? For someone who uses global knives (chef/boning and paring knives) which of these 2 sharpeners you recommend? Thank you!

Global Universal Knife Sharpener

BEST ANSWER: I only have the two stage sharpener. The advantage of the 3 stage I think would be more control over the edge characteristics. It didn't exist when I bought my 2 stage or I probably would have bought the 3 stage.
