Good sharpener for everyday

Would Recommend

Great sharpener, easy to use and works well. The only issue i had was with the file for use on a serrated knife. It actually caused some noticable grooves in the knife. I wouldnt recommend that part of the sharpener, but the other parts sharpened my knives well and I like that it is adjustable.

Great little sharpener

Would Recommend

Great little sharpener. Packaging includes clear instructions and link to demo video very helpful. Have sharpened kitchen knives that were getting dull. Noticed huge difference slicing fresh tomatoes from garden. Pre sharpening the knives would squash the tomato before finally slicing through. After sharpening tomatoes sliced with ease!

Handy, portable and does the job.

Would Recommend

This knife sharpener is 3.5"x1.5". It's light and easy to handle. It has finger grips on each side. It has a hole, bottom right, where it can be put on a lanyard or a carabiner for easy carrying, or just stick it in your pocket. Great for camping! It has sharpening groove edges incased in yellow and are metal. The honing groove is ceramic which you use after sharpening to smooth our your knife blade. This small sharpener does have a fold out sharpener for serrated edged knives. We've used this ...

Good for Starters

Would Recommend

This little sharpener is a pretty nice product. The packaging is nice and provides good instructions. I am not a knife sharpening expert at all, but I do carry a knife enough to know sharp from dull. I don’t think this will ever replace a multi-stone set up, but for its small size it’s definitely worth keeping around for travel or quick touch ups. I will say personally my favorite part is the tapered diamond rod. It’s meant for serrations, but it did a great job on my ceramic kitchen knife that ...

Excellent multi purpose sharpener

Would Recommend

I mostly use it in the kitchen for knives. It is a nice addition to my household and also easy to be carried around for camping/ fishing trips. It seemed to be well made with quality material so hopefully will last a very long time.

Great pocket sharpener

This is compact and light. Does the job in a pinch. I love the portability of it and that it takes up so little space. I especially appreciate the foldable sharpener for serrated blades.

It does exactly what it says it will do - SHARP!

Would Recommend

This is a serious tool, and I love it! It's small (fits in my palm), super lightweight, and it will put an edge on your knives like you cannot believe! I took an old Henkel kitchen knife that I used to love -but was really dull, and it's so sharp it cuts paper now! I have a list of other knives I'll be sharpening now! It's amazing!!! The packaging folds out to give you a user manual, but if you're like me - you still aren't sure you'd be doing it the right way. Thanks worksmart.com for the...

Keep it sharp !

Would Recommend

Work Sharp sharpeners , Pivot plus is a great hand held knife sharpener that you can put in your pocket or tackle box to make sure your blade is the sharpest it can be all the time. It has 2 settings for how much it will take off at a time (depending how dull your blade is) ,it also comes with a ceramic hone to finish up the blade after sharpening . I really like the tapered diamond rod so I can sharpen my knives that have a serrated blade on them . I like the fact that it has a 3 year warrant...

Nice Sharpener

Would Recommend

Descent knife sharpener. Small and compact which makes it easy for storage or to carry with you. The price and slick design is what set this sharpener aside from others. It's like all sharpeners that it does take time to get a dull blade sharpe again

Work Sharp Perfect Portable Knife Sharpener

Would Recommend

When you need a compact knife sharpener that you can put in your pocket and carry around with you on the trail or while camping out, the Work Sharp Pivot Plus knife sharpener fits the bill. During these activities, I often find myself with a less than sharp edge on my knife. Enter the Work Sharp pocket size knife sharpener to the rescue. A few passes using either the carbide or ceramic grooves gets me back in the game quickly. While it doesn't give me a honing stone sharpness like blade, it does...

Average Knife Sharpener

Would Not Recommend

Not what I expected. After using on a variety of knives, repeatedly, it doesn't really sharpen well or quickly. Pocket knives, kitchen knives, etc. It wasn't really efficient.

Don't let the small size fool you!

Would Recommend

The Pivot Plus WorkSharp Knife Sharpener may look small, but it packs a punch for sharpening all of our knives and tools. I have sharpened not only smooth blade knives, but serrated knives and even my mandolin veggie cutter using the serrated sharpening tool. With just a few swipes of the knives against the sharpener, the blades become even sharper than they were when first purchased. My veggies cut like butter.

Great Pocket Sharpener!

Would Recommend

This thing really amazed me. My everday knife was badly damaged and had no edge left. The Work Sharp sharpener brought it back to life! Tjere are two settings on the main sharpening function, the setting for knives like mine follows the conture of the blade and removes more material. There is a ceramic hone to clean the blade up afterwards. I also like that there is a diamond tapered rod to sharpen serrations on the blade! I HIGHLY recommend this sharpener, and that's coming from a guy who rarel...

Small expense IMPORTANT TASK!

Worksharp knife sharpener. Inexpensive gadget with a very important task. Although this little tool does not require a huge amount of cash, it accomplishes a very important job! In my experience, there’s a lot of truth in the saying, “Fewer things more dangerous than a dull knife!” Many accidents have been attributed to losing control of a knife when having to apply unnecessary force to overcome the resistance of a dull blade. So, this review is not important because of the expense of the tool,...

Great Pocket sharpener

Would Recommend

Nice little pocket Knife sharpener. I tried it on knives that were already in pretty good shape. Does a good job of cleaning up the edge while in the field. I tried it on a messed up knife I found in the desert, but the little sharper Couldn't help. However, if you need a pocket knife sharpener to keep your blades in tip top shape, this will work nicely. Also, the Blade tooth sharpener folds in.
