Can you sharpen serrated blades too?

This thing appeared to work very well for a couple of sharpenings. It worked on a serrated blade but actually cut the ends off of the serrations. The plastic cover opens in an odd way and when I tried to open it as it shows in the picture one half of the case broke off. It then became somewhat dangerous to use as it leaves the hand holding the sharpener unprotected. And then after a couple of sharpenings it appeared to have knocked the "diamond" dust off of the fingers and doesn't sharpen. I think that was because I sharpened a serrated blade.

No. This tool is NOT recommended for serrated blades. Serrated blades require a special tool.But this knife sharpener is great for straight blades. I highly recommend it.

Yes, i sharpen my Chicago Cutley BT-10 Bread knife. BT-10 means ten inches long.This only shaprens the high points and that is where the cutting happens. I love this sharpener. It is being copied by other companies such as Gerber. It is the one I turn to first. It never fails me. Buy it and send me a thank you email. I am serious, it is that good !Pete HallockOrcutt, California

Your question intrigued me and I went on their web site. According to Accu sharp, this does work on serrated knives.

Yes, they are serrated and very sharp. I'm very happy with this product. I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed. I hope my answer helps you to make your decision. Have a good one.

Yes and no. You can use the manual honing slot for honing the tips on the serration without risk of ruining the knife. You could also sharpen a serrated knife in the grinding slots, but that will eat a little of the serration each time, and after x number of sharpenings, the serration will have disappeared.

I use a Spyderco Tri-Angle for serrated blades. You can sharpen them at 15 or 20 degrees. Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker Knife Sharpener 204MF

No, I'm pretty sure that you can't sharpen serrated edge knives with any regular sharpener.

Mary Anne, Thank you for your inquiry. The Perfect Edge knife sharpener is very effective on serrated knives and will provide a very sharp edge.

Yes! It sharpened my serrated knives beautifully! I even sharpened the steak knives with it! Just don't put it in for very long... test by slicing a piece of paper... will tell you it's sharp enough. I love it! Easy to use and sharpens well!

I have cut meat with this knife and it worked well, but I do not feel the serrated edge can be easily sharpened.

For serrated knives you should use the round file sharpener. Unfortunately you may have damaged the other sharpener. Go to youtube to find techniques on how to sharpen serrated knives.

In my experience, the serrated stone on this kit is almost useless. Serrations aren't usually triangular anyway. I would suggest using the hand sharpener carefully on the serrations.

The sharpener is NOT for serrated knives. It works fine on all flat blade knives. It's not the best sharpener in the world, but good for the price.

Yes, you can sharpen them with a commercial sharpener or hone the edges. I have read online that people have sent them in for sharpening and the CostCo website says that "all non-serrated knives are hand-sharpened on a whetstone, and finished on a Japanese leather wheel for the best quality cutting edge" so that would probably work too. Good luck!

The DMT WM8FC-WB 8-Inch DuoSharp is not well-suited for sharpening serrated blades. One of the DMT tapered-rod sharpeners would be much more efficient in sharpening a serrated blade. Sharpening serrated blades is very time consuming, but it can be done if you are patient and focused.

Not sure. I'd say no to serrated blades, in general. These are drag-through sharpening notches... straight steel blades sharpen wonderfully. Not sure what miracle blades are made of.

I have yet to sharpen the blades even after filleting over 100 fish, as they still cut well. I do know that were available when I purchased the knife. I also think that one could sharpen the blades using a method appropriate for sharpening serrated blades.
