 Great knife sharpener November 4, 2008
Harold D. Bernstein (Cincinnati, OH)
Very easy to use and produces a much sharper blade faster than I have had with many other sharpening methods.
Love it! Love it! October 24, 2008
Diane Wright (Dallas, TX)
I received my knife sharpener very quickly and when I opened the box, I was very impressed; this was no rinky-dinky machine. I read over the instructions which were very simple, then using just a few at a time, over the course of 3 or 4 days, I got all my knives sharpened to a beautiful edge even some that looked hopeless. For years I've tried to learn how to sharpen knives the "old-fashioned" way. Pooh. A couple of minutes and my knife is sharpened to look better than it did when it was new. When they were all sharpened, then the machine went into the cabinet til needed again, whenever that might be. It does heat up and has to rest occasionally, but the instructions warned me of this. I love this product!

This product works much better than I expected. It gives a very clean and fine edge to all of the knives I have used with it. I will never use another brand. Buy it you won't be sorry.
 Knife sharpening is not a dull subject... June 4, 2006

After my wife complained that our kitchen knives were getting too dull to use, I set out to find a good knife sharpener for household use. I researched a bit and found several options - both manual and electric. One name that kept popping up was "Chef's Choice" and I noticed very few negative comments on their models. Having both a discount coupon and gift certificate from Bed, Bath & Beyond - I decide to make my decision there. Unfortunately, there wasn't any sales staff knowledgeable about knife sharpeners and I had to go it alone. It was there that I first noticed the Waring KS80 Professional Sharpener. With it's black and stainless finish - it was definitely more attractive than the plain white Chef's Choice - but, it was somewhat more expensive retailing at $100. I settled for the Chef's Choice 110, took it home and was promptly disappointed. On the expensive chef's knife I first tried it on, it left a decidedly sharp but ragged edge on the blade. It looked as though I had tried to sharpen the knife on the sidewalk! I didn't dare try sharpening any other knives and risk leaving such an ugly edge on them. Bed, Bath & Beyond gladly made an exchange for the Waring and I was much more pleased with it's final results - a sharp blade with a more visually-pleasing edge. It even cleaned up the rough edge left by the Chef's Choice. The only disadvantage I have found is that, with most knives, the inch or so of blade nearest the handle cannot be sharpened since the hilt of the knife keeps it from being placed into the sharpener's slots. This, however, is not a major drawback since this area of the blade is not frequently encountered in most uses. The Chef's Choice will cover the entire blade length - but with a very rough finish. I recommend the Waring over the Chef's Choice without reservation - but the Waring is probably a bit too expensive for an appliance that will likely see only a very few uses a year.
Easy to use, good value December 9, 2005

I have a manual sharpener, but in reality almost never use it. The electric sharpener makes keeping my knives sharp a no-brainer. There's a coarse grinder for knives that are dull. For most knives the fine- and polishing-grinder works just great. If you have inexpensive knives, the coarse grinder will chew them up, but if you have well-made knives the Waring will work well. I've had good success with the Waring.
