Yes the Chef's Choice 250 sharpens serrated knives as well as a standard blade.

Yes. Use the stationary third non-rotating sharpening stone for serrated blades.

No it only sharpens the blades that come with it... that is why I returned it.

I have never attempted to sharpen scissors and I really am not familiar with the finer points of the process. This stone is a very simple tool for sharpening simple non-serrated knives. If scissors can be sharpened by simply honing one or both sides of the blades, the stone should work fine. If you need to do something more intricate, it won't do.

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 these knives can be sharpened. The only one I've not tried to sharpen is the serrated knife. I purchased the sharpener along with the knife set and it does a great job. Love the set.

absolutely! The Chef's Choice 1520 does a great job on most knifes. Use the honing wheels on your serrated knives, as per the instructions.

Nope and we have serrated knives. I was surprised but the knives that comes with the Chicago Cutlery set are the BEST we've ever had and they even top our serrated knives. No idea why. But they do. Even tough steaks (occasionally we overcook them) can be sliced easily.

Can't help you. Don't use serrated knives. Can tell you the Trizor made all my other knives dangerously sharp!

Depends on what you mean. Sharpening a knife means taking off metal. If you take off metal in a straight line, you're going to eventually remove the serrated edge completely. You'll still have a knife, it just won't be serrated. Actually sharpening a serrated knife means individually working on each little serration - it's a lot of work, and this isn't the tool for it.

does not do a good job but will sharpen a very dull serrated knife. the motor in this unit is small and it takes a long time to sharpen anything.

I have the same style knife and though it did make the straight edge a little sharper, I've experienced very minimal results on the serrated edge.

if you read the description it says they are serrated. I don't think you can sharpen serrated blades.

I don't know. I'm under the impression that serrated knives in general cannot be sharpened.

Aloha... it takes a LOT of passes to sharpen the serrated knife, but it does help. Even though I only cut bread with my serrated knife it still got dull, and the sharpener brought it back - but as I said, it takes more time than other blades.

No, but it is really simple to use. I was able to sharpen all my kitchen knives in just 10 minutes.

Yes it does leave a serrated edge. Not a tool for leather working but a rescue tool for fire dept. To cut a clean edge I would get a high quality box cutting knife from Stanley.

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