While this product will help you keep the proper edge when sharpening a knife, I don't think the stones are any better than anything else. I have some knives that are very hard steel, VG-10, and very hard to sharpen. I thought maybe this was the ticket, but I don't get any better results than any other method.

In my opinion - there's a certain art to sharpening with a stone, and it normally takes a lot of time, FOCUS and patience to do it. While that used to be true - some clever folks, including Lansky, are re-inventing the process. I won't completely give up on my older stones, for some knives I feel they deserve the 'old ways'. For the stainless steel kitchen and general purpose knives I own this set seems just right. Plus - I can be interrupted by my kids, set this down on the workbench to help them, pick it up later and know exactly where I am in the process.Most 'knife sharpening systems' are designed to hone the blade (ceramic rods), or grind way too much off (electric sharpeners). You either don't do enough or you eat away too much steel with the cousin of an electric can opener. This system helped me sharpen my knives quickly, efficiently and still have time to make dinner in the same night.Don't jump the gun, read the instructions first. Really. It's a pretty simple process, but an important one to understand for a consistent edge. Sharpening my first two knives took nearly an hour each as they each had some flat spots on the blade edge that required a lot of work. Since then, I've become more efficient, though some knives require more work to get a consistent angle on the edge. For most knives it's been about 20 minutes each - even if they were relatively sharp when I started. Why? When using this system on a knife for the first time - use *all* the stones *especially* the coarse stone. *Tip #1* mark the cutting edge of a knife with a permanent marker to be sure you are using the system properly and the edge is consistently at the proper angle. Several of mine, with a factory edge, were off in two or three spots. *Tip #2* - use the oil! I heard some reviews complaining about the stones clogging up. This happens more on some knives than others - even with the same steel & brand of knives. The oil 'floats' the steel shavings off the stone so the excess can be wiped off. If your stone is discolored by steel shavings use the oil, rub it a bit with your fingertip, then wipe the excess oil and steel shavings away. If you use a white paper towel you can see just how much steel was on the stone.If you are a hobbyist, want to have very sharp knives and have some blades that need to be re-edged due to regular use or even slight damage or mistreatment - this is enough to do that. You may need additional stones (which are available) or a strop if you want a mirror finish or want to shave with a blade. If you're a professional - I'll let you decide if this is fast enough and accurate enough for you as I am not.What I do know is that I, shamefully, had a few knives that would crush a full sized tomato before 'slicing' it. After a proper sharpening with this kit I could not only slice a sheet of paper into fine ribbons, I could cut about 10-15 perfect tiny slices from a single cherry tomato. My 4 year old now wants tiny tomato sandwiches. In hindsight - I learned you shouldn't do this test with your children watching.

This product cannot be given a higher mark as it is unusable without a "Lansky Super "C" Clamp" or similar contraption that secures it to a workplace. The poorly injected plastic box that it comes in is a disappointment. It will not stay closed and the metal bars inside the box are very difficult to remove. Otherwise the idea is good and with the C-clamp knives can be sharpened.

Wow. I was getting such and tried of my dull knives and couldn't get the the cutler to get them sharpened. So I took a chance and bought this knife sharpener. I am impressed. Supper easy and did a great job. They might be a bit better from the cutler, but after a month of use they seem dull. Now I can sharpen frequently and anyways have knives that are more than sharp!

Actually, the kit isn't bad. I guess, using it is better than try sharpening just by hand. Besides 2 hone holders were missing, the other 2 looked like they were 90 degrees, but as soon as you try to tighten the screw it changes the angle. This means that holes are too big, I think. Basically, it is very very hard to make the hone flat. I would say close to impossible. But... OK. I will survive and I most likely will have to make at least one more hone holder.

If you are dedicated enough to want a reliable, dedicated and functional knife sharpener jig this is it. You can expand with a stand, other stones and stropping straps, et cetera. Made here in Buffalo NY, in America with American jobs. Actually Tonowanda, 15 minutes from my house. Cannot reccomend enough.HOWEVER: Quality control seems to be lacking. I received my unit with the finest grade stone unusable, the guide ride hole is completely undrilled. I could easily drill a hole for it myself but without a drill-press i lack the confidence to fix the problem myself. I will update the score with a revised rating when a solution is reached.

These stones work great for sharpening small to medium sized knives. The jig to hold the knives in place and the ability to choose the angle as well is a life saver. Very easy to use. Sharpens knives and keeps them sharp.
