Wusthof is a pretty basic knife. This is a pretty basic knife sharpener. I think it would sharpen any knife that has a normal blade.

Any knife can be sharpened by it. I sharpened all my knives, even serrated, really well and with not much effort.

No, the manufacturer makes it clear that it is only for sharpening knives (which it does superbly).

I bought the sharpener at the same time as I bought the steel. The steel does such a great job of tuning up the cutting edges that I haven't had to use the sharpener much. I sharpened a couple of small paring knives with it as well as an 8" butcher knife and it worked very well. Make sure you have a good steel like the wusthof 12" and you won't need the sharpener very often.

cutco offers free sharpening service with their knives, I have this sharpener and would recommend it but would not use it on cutco knives.... it may void their warranty.

This sharpener is PETech. It is shown on a Wusthof Youtube video. You can find this video if you google Wusthof Precision Edge Technology.

I have a general knife sharpener, which seems to work fine. The problem with these knifes, in my opinion, is the flimsy construction and general bendability of the blades, not their sharpness.

Nope, any regular quality sharpener will work fine. The long point sharpener is pretty cool but there is a 2 step process.

Yes and No. Yes, as a First stage for sharpening the knife - I use it on my Wustoff knives. However, I use a hard Arkansas stone to produce the Finished edge. Use the coarse side on extremely worn or dull knives that need restoration. I am satisfied with this stone for most household sharpening, although, I am shopping for a dual grit water stone in the range of 2000/6000 grits.

Wusthof is a Germany Company/product. The ad for the set should mention product numbers. The Wusthof scissors are great! I love that they break apart to clean them. Paring knives are a kitchen must have and I know you'll love these.

Yes, I use it on my Ginsu Japanese steel knives and they are sharper than ever. I love this Smith's sharpener! Best thing I've bought in a long time.

Yes. I use the sharpener that Wüsthof makes, which is designed to accommodate the blade edge design.

I am not familiar with Global knives but unless the knife has only one side to sharpen it should work very well. Yes, I have used the second slot only. Since I have had this sharpener for a short time I have found it to be avery good, and safe item. I would highly recommend it.very

It should not matter who made the knives in question, this sharpener should be able to handle them well - unless you have "ceramic" (white or black blades) rather than steel blades. Those will probably require specialized diamond sharpeners.

Absolutely. Works on all brands that we have. Just follow directions for sharpening. No pressure required.
