Customer Review: Chef's Choice 130 Knife Sharpener
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this sharpener. It is easy to learn to use so that a non skilled non professional can sharpen their knives. They can keep them sharpened without trying to find a professional and paying high prices to keep those serated knives sharp. I have 2 other friends that own one of these and they love them too.Customer Review: Gets Them Sharp
Summary: 5 Stars
About 15 years ago, I purchased a Chef's Choice knife sharpener. It was good, lasted a long time, but finally wore out and had to be replaced. I looked at several sharpening methods, talked with experts, and considered my previous experience. I ruled our sharpening by hand - it looks like there is a learning curve, and good stones don't come cheap. When the new sharpener arrived, I was surprised that you only have one "grinding station" for normal knives. The second station puts on the burr you need for a good cutting knife. I was skeptical. But, when I tried it, it sharpened ALL my kitchen knives to better-than-new condition. Even the cheap ones -- Also did a great job on my old Chinese chopper! I love this sharpener, and look forward to many years of use. It seems to be built just as strong as my old sharpener - and works much better.Customer Review: great item
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this item and at first was disappointed with it sharpening or lack of it. The instructions were misleading in that they made it seem that you use #1 then #3 primarily and #2 occasionally. Well that didn't work for me. For a extremely dull knife use 20 passes on stage #1, 10 passes on stage #2, and 1 fast pull through stage #3 followed by 10 more passes on #2 and a final fast pass through #3 makes for a razor sharp edge that will shave the hair off your arm.Customer Review: Happy with Chef's Choice M130 purchase
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased the Chef's Choice M130 about a month ago. Our knives hadn't been sharpened in over two years so they were way overdue. I immediately read the directions and sharpened according to what I read. I found the process to be easy to understand and to execute. Most importantly after sharpening, our knives regained their edge and we found things much easier to cut as a result. Customer Review: Well Made and Effective
Summary: 5 Stars
I just finished putting a whole drawer full of dull knives through this device and all of them are much sharper. The M130 is easy to use. The slots make it almost impossible to hold the knife at any angle other than the correct one. The unit itself seems well made and solid. The sticker on the bottom of mine says it was assembled in the USA. Using it on my kitchen counter, it didn't slide around or seem flimsy in any way. My pre-purchase research suggested the M130 was the sharpener to get and now that I have one, I can see why.
