Versatile, User-Friendly Design
A sharp blade makes it easier to get work done quickly and safely. The innovative AccuSharp Knife Sharpener lets you sharpen most blades in around ten seconds. Sharpening is oil- and mess-free, and it doesn't require guessing at angles or handling rough, awkward stones. This sharpener's easy-to-use design makes it a great tool to have on hand in professional and personal kitchens, as well as an easy choice for hunters, fishermen and women, gardeners, and craftspeople.

Featuring a unique, ergonomic handle, the AccuSharp fits neatly in either hand to accommodate both right- and left-handed users, and it includes a full-length guard that protects your fingers throughout the sharpening process.

Fast, Effective Sharpening
To get started sharpening, you simply place your knife on a table or counter top with the cutting edge up. Hold the knife handle securely with one hand. Then let the "V" notch on the sharpener straddle the blade, and use your thumb to apply light pressure as you draw the AccuSharp down past the point of the blade.

When you first use the AccuSharp on a blade, several passes may be required to make sure that your knife's cutting angle conforms to the AccuSharp angle. But once that angle is achieved the first time, it should take just two or three brief passes to put a sharp edge back on your knife--which means that sharpening fits into your busy schedule instead of interfering with it.

Dependable, Long-Lasting Construction
To deliver years of reliable use, AccuSharp sharpening blades are crafted from diamond-honed tungsten carbide, one of the hardest known materials. And because even the toughest industrial-quality blades eventually begin to show wear, AccuSharp's unique design allows you to reverse the blade to double its life span. Most users report an average of five to 10 years between blade replacements, which means that it's easy to ensure that your sharpener will be ready to go when you need it.

AccuSharp Knife Sharpeners will not rust, and they can be cleaned easily with soap and water or in your dishwasher.

Product Reviews

(5 stars) - A great tool for quick sharpening of inexpensive knifes
This sharpener quickly shaves off bits of metal from the knife's cutting edge, so it is great for your cheaper knives. If you have expensive knives, like Global, that should get more tlc, this is not likely your best option. I use it to keep my other knives sharp, depending on frequency of use. I find that I use it weekly for my most used knives. I think it is a great tool for the price. Use it on a dry knife away from food and wash off the metal shavings immediately to avoid eating them. I find I use this way more than the tedious sharpening stone.

(5 stars) - worth getting
we borrowed this sharpener from our son, and it did such a great job on our knives, that we ordered one for ourselves. i have not personally used this sharpener but it looks easy to use.

(4 stars) - AccShap Sharpener
Haven't had any problem with the product. Easy to use; I had sharpen few knives, and it seems to work well. It's safe to use.

(5 stars) - Brilliant Tool!
I had no idea my knives were so dull until I used this bad-boy on them; they are SCARY sharp now after spending all of 6 minutes going through my small collection! Really nothing more to say...buy it!

(2 stars) - Disappointed After Reading the Cook's Illustrated Review
I bought this product after reading the Nov 2006 Cook's illustrated Review of manual sharpeners. I was looking for an affordable option to sharpen very dull knives, as electric sharpeners are not in the budget right now. Perhaps it is because my knives were very dull, but the sharpener did not return my knives to the desirable sharpened state, even after about 5 minutes of passing the sharpener over the knife. In fact, the sharpener left grooves in my blade! Now I will have to buy an electric sharpener or find someone who can professionally grind my knives into the proper sharpness. That being said, the knives are a little sharper than when they started, but I have returned the device and asked for my money back.
