Excellent product. My hard german steel knives were sharpened with a few light strokes on each side. Works better than my mechanized diamond sharpener. Can't beat it for the price.

I bought this for my Dad. He says it does a very good job sharpening his kitchen knives. The price is pretty good

The diamond specks interwoven with the steel make this implement a bit gritty. However, it provides a very sharp edge after passing the knife on this tool only about 5 times on each side, so I gave it a 5 star rating. After using this implement, I give the knife a final / fine edge by using my other rod sharpener. The only minor drawback is the12 inch lenghth (about 2 inches too long for me) and it does not fit in my wooden knife holder because of it's oval / flat shape, which I did not detect in the photo. I find this a must-have tool for my kitchen.
