Does this ever wear out and need to be replaced? Mine is 20+ years old. Thanks.

I've had it for quite some time and it still works well - not 20 years, however. I recently purchased one for my son as well. We sharpen everything with it and it works like new. It certainly won't hurt to purchase another one, not expensive and the best sharpener we've purchased.

I haven't had mine long enough to answer this, all I can say is that it works great, and not just on Rada knives. I bought my sons and their wives each one with Rada knives for Christmas and they both think they are great.

I use mine almost every weekend for over a year now. No problems. I agree with Marc and try to contact the company.

COntact where you bought it and request a new one. They really shouldn't wear out if it's a good JR.

I have always used it that way. In fact, I got one for my relatives because it worked so well. Highly recommend it. Mine lasted over 20 years. I am tempted to replace it but there is no reason to.

Dori, sorry to hear that. I just purchased mine in April and have used it a total of 5 times. So far, no probs.Their website will inform you of what should be done to replace the product. Good Luck. Barbara

I've had mine for several years and it works perfectly. You should get it replaced.

Yes. It is time to replace it. I have the same problem now. It is supposed to last seven years.

Yes, it does wear out. I made the mistake of sharing one with my husband and letting friends who were curious try it and it wore out right away! I was glad to see that Amazon was going to do a Subscribe and Save.

I use mine several times a week and have had it for about 2 years. It still looks and feels like new. They last a really long time.

Contact the company to get it replaced. It has a lifetime warranty, but I'm not sure that covers normal wear and tear.

I have had mine for several years, and no problems whatsoever. It sounds like yours is defective and you should see about having it exchanged.

The one I have now is my second one. I would say I had my first one for at least 10 years. I used it mainly in my car. The reason I replaced it was the material was starting to wear. Hope this is helpful.

I haven't replaced mine yet, still works great and cleaning after each use should make it last a long time!

I've had mine for 3 years, and it's in the same condition it was when I bought it. I don't know the technical answer to this question, but I think I'll have my pillow for 20 years, more or less, before it needs to be replaced.

I would send it back and get a replacement. I've had mine for over 7-8 years and no issues.

I've had mine for a couple of years and still looks normal and performs well. I'm thinking about replacing it simply because I don't want to use it and find out it's gone bad. (I keep it in the freezer which extends shelf life considerably.)

Ours has held up great! We have had ours for a few years now with no issues and we use it almost every day.
