AccuSharp 001 Knife Sharpener Review
This knife sharpener made it to the top of the heap for non-electric sharpeners in a recent issue of Cooks magazine. So, I decided to try it. The Accusharp is definitely a step up from a flat stone. It provides a more consistent edge in amateur hands and, gets knives sharp quickly. I liked it enough that I ordered several more for friends and family members with kitchen drawers full of dull knives.

Seen recommended in Cook’s Magazine. It actually does what it claims to do. The position of the handle is awkward to get used to at first, but it makes sense. Follow instructions and don’t use force and it will sharpen kitchen knives that are unsafe when dull. Terrific buy!

Even though it sharpens very well, it is not a professional edge. I don’t recommend this if you have expensive knives. It puts a strange edge on your blade that can not be honed so all you can do is sharpen again and again which will eventually eat up the blade. Of course it will take years for this to happen. I recommend this for cheap knives.

This knife sharpener works extremely well with thin blades (kitchen knives or similar knifes). My Swiss army knife is sharpened within seconds! This sharpener, however, does not work well with thick blades like swords and katanas unless they are already sharpened or unless they are thin. Overall a great product, recommended!

I was reluctant to buy another knife sharpener since I had one which worked pretty reasonably. But all these reviews, plus the recommendation by Cooks Illustrated sold me. Hey, it’s only [...] bucks, why not? After sharpening every knife in my kitchen, I’m asking myself, why not earlier? The knives were so sharp, I was paranoid that I would slice myself open with them. The design is ingenious. Unlike other some other sharpeners where you move the knife across the sharpener, you place the knife with the blade facing up and move the sharpener over it. In this way, you get more even pressure across the entire blade, so you manage to sharpen the tips very well also. Moreover, because the blade is resting on a flat surface upside-down, the knife is sharpened more evenly on both sides of the blade–something which makes a major difference for both sharpness in cutting and for homes who have both left-handed and right-handed cooks like mine. The only thing that has disappointed me is that the picture on the back of the packaging implies that it can sharpen serrated knives, which it can–in theory. I suspect it works best where the serrations are far apart, but on my serrated and steak knives, the serrations are too close together for the Accusharp to be effective. For ten bucks, this item is a fantastic value! You can even buy new sharpeners for when the blades become dull. Wow!
