Will blade work better once you to turn it over? What sharpener works to the best?

Sharpeners work OK, but i prefer replacing the blades with new ones. Turning the blade over has no effect in my opinion. They last a long time.

Hi, I bought the sharpener and have used it on both Global and Wustholf knives to great success, best if you finish with the Wusthof steel afterwards.

Hi Kullen,I have not actually needed a sharpener yet; however, I find the best sharpener for maintain this type of blade is a diamond or ceramic sharpening rod. Hope this helps. Thanks :-)

Yes. It uses a different angle than smooth edge blades so make sure when you use a steel to use the correct angle (I think it's 20 degrees but I may be mistaken). I used a standard knife sharpener on it and it dulled the knife. If you use a sharpener makes sure it's designed to work with these kinds of blades. And when you get all this right be careful.. these knives are S H A R P.

You have to turn the handle where it attaches to the sharpener. It is quite easy to get to and clean when necessary.

Yes, the sharpener, sharpens the blades well. It isn't used, too often, as the blades stay sharp, for a long time. I would assume, if you are a chef or really cook a lot-----you would sharpen the blades, more frequent. My daughter in law, cooks a lot, and does not use the sharpener, a lot. She has the same set, and loves it, too !

Turn it on and hold a knife sharpening steel or super fine diamond file to match the back bevel of blade for 15 seconds or so. Don't sharpen the face of the blade or it won't cut straight.

the best way is to go to a reliable knife sharpener person. If none are available in your area, there is a hand held sharpener you can use. It has two little crock stick areas that you use depending on the knife. Check out the Lansky PS Med 01 blade medic or the Zwilling J A Henckels Twin Sharp Duo Knife Sharpener. Stay away from electric ones as they are hard on the blades.

Don't feel bad, I have the same problem. I've discovered that the blades that come with the sharpener works well but the others? Not so much.

I take mine to a professional knife sharpner at a quilt shop if they are very dull or nicked, I also use the edge sharpener I purchased from Amazon, my husband does it for me

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

I spoke with our technician and the electric chainsaw sharpener can turn 10 degrees to the right or left. I do not have any information on the length of time it would take to sharpen the blade but the technician did say that the sharpening stone is up against the steel blade. Let us know if you have any other questions.

from RD: I have used the chainsaw sharpener...which worked fine, but haven't tried with the lawn mower blade sharpener as yet.

kjm said the directions say it will work on serrated edge knives. Is there any kind of a guarantee if the sharpener ruins it?

I went with the Prismacolor sharpener and I am glad that I did. It maximises the lead width so I get minimal waste. I hope this helps:)

It should sharpen it without any issue. I have sharpened several pocket knives, 3" and up. Also, a few 10" kitchen knives.

Yes it should. Please read the directions carefully. It will sharpen it nicely, but it will not be as sharp as a new blade.
