no experience with this. i would consider their belted models before this one. or a lansky type for quality knives

This will take the dullest knife to razor sharp

My neighbor bought a Wicked Edge, he showed me how he could shave with his knives now. Very pricey.

I'd love something like a edgepro, but way too pricey

I'd like something with a guide, as I'm relatively new to sharpening my own

[Steponmytoes]

I have their belted model and it works great for kitchen/utility knives. I use my spyderco sharpmaker for more expensive knives

With a good whetstone even a newb can achieve razor sharp blades.

Go to ebay and search "wet stone sharpening"

There are some that are less than $7.00

Watch some you tubes on it. It is not that hard

You will want
1 stone 200 to 300 grit

1 stone 400 to 600 grit

1 stone 1000 to 1500 grit

1 stone 3000 to 6000 grit

1 stone 8000 to 12000 grit

Yo will want a holder and resurface block at some point. Not needed to get started.

Thanks for your advise!

I'm looking into the Lansky kits that were mentioned above as well

[bubbala]

lansky "type" not necessarily that brand. i like a diamond stone option for the bevel establishment or first cut. i'v seen some that have a straight wire that might be easier to keep accurate.

Haha thanks man!

I've heard good things about the Spyderco one too

It looks like the Lansky would be a better system (full guidance). Although for smaller angles, the rod does scrape the clamping bolt. That's the only complaint I have about the Lansky.
