This is probably one of the safest knife sharpeners I've ever bought. I
actually purchased this for my best friend. She recently had a child and
is moving into her first apartment. Because her fiance is a cook, they
want to make sure to keep their knives sharp but taking them out to a
professional is cost prohibitive, especially with a new baby. I wanted
something that would be safe for all of them with virtually no risk for
injury. This knife sharpener has given me that feeling of safety!
I have owned more that one knife sharpener but they all seemed to have handles that you had to hold onto in order to sharpen the knife. That just leaves way too much margin for error and injury. One slip and suddenly your hand is right in the way of the blade. Because this knife sharpener connects to the table or counter with a suction cup, you don't have to have your hand anywhere near the sharpener when you're actually sharpening your knives. That makes it so much safer!
This knife sharpener does come with instructions. They're pretty much the same as most other knife sharpeners. For a really dull blade, use the coarse side first than the other. For a blade that you're just touching up, only use the fine side. Just make sure that you only pull the knife through in one direction! If you move it back and forth, you can chew up the blade and destroy it! Also, do not use this one serrated knives! It's for knives with straight edges. All you'll end up doing is turning your serrated knife into a straight edge knife.
As long as you follow those directions, you're sure to come out uninjured with sharp, easy to use knives! I highly recommend this knife sharpener to anyone struggling with dull knives! I received this product either complimentary or at a discount for product testing purposes and my honest and unbiased review. All thoughts expressed are my own and in no way swayed or falsified.
