TrueCut TrueSharp 2 Rotary Cutter Blade Sharpener – Fast, Easy Diamond Grit Sharpener for 28mm, 45mm & 60mm Blades – Quilting and Sewing Tool

This TRUECUT sharpener is an expense and poor product. The blades never get sharpened and become very dull when using this product. Do no buy it! I wish I could get my money back!

I resisted the idea of buying one, but being that my wife decided she needs my blades to cut papers and plastic, it is more affordable to use this since there is no more Joanne’s. It keeps my blades useful and longer lasting. With an even all around sharpness. Useful for all my quilting.

Worthless sharpener. I purchased the sharpener shortly after purchasing the rotary cutters thinking that resharpening the blades would be cheaper than buying new blades. Unfortunately the return window closed before I had a chance to actually use the sharpener, otherwise I would have boxed it up and sent it back. After wasting an untold amount of time sharpening, flipping the blade, sharpening, re-oiling, and on and on with the same blade, the end result was a blade that was actually more dull than when I started. Not only that but the sharpened actually introduce a dull spot on each of the three blades that I tried to sharpen. I have other blade sharpeners ( for example a Kycera ceramic knife sharpener) that work quite well but I certainly cannot say that for this sharpener. The rotary cutters are very good and are great from an ergonomic point of view. I think that someone seriously needs to go back to the drawing board and figure out why this sharpener not only does not sharpen but actually makes the blade worse. Absolutely do not waste your money on this sharpener. Either buy another sharpener and purposely dull a blade to try it out or resolve to just buy new blades. I would give it zero stars if that was possible.

I do like this product. Blades are so expensive that I hate throwing them away with not more use you get out of them and this works fairly well. It does not give you a cut like a new blade but does give some extend the life of the blade. I is rather expensive for what you get.

This was a gift for a friend. She was totally thrilled with it.

I was really excited about obtaining this sharpener. I cut a lot of fabric to make items for charity and thought it would help keep costs down. When I received this item I tried it out with a 60mm blade. Followed the directions and was really disappointed in the results. I must have run that blade four or five times. When I looked at what I received. The box stated there was two sets of grinding stones (one installed). I did not get a second set. I talked with Grace and the person who I talked said, they are no longer putting two sets in (so take that information off your box!) Also received some little metal things that they did not explain what they were for and asked about them in an e-mail--they never responded to that question. I had received a small bottle of oil which only was half-full and asked them what it was and where could I get more. They said it was mineral oil. I believe I may have received a return item from Amazon, but I didn't think I could return it since it was used. Any how I spent time today trying to sharpen and 45mm blade and did not get good results. It was a good idea Grace Company, but it isn't working for me. I am disappointed with your product.

My friend showed me this sharpener (she has an earlier model), and I read some bad reviews, but I figured, "Well, why not give it a shot." I had a lot of old blades that I was collecting to get rid of all at once in a plastic case for safety, so I had a nice supply to test. Some took longer than others, but they all got sharpened enough to do a fine job of cutting through at least 4 layers of fabric. Be warned, though: it is VERY noisy!

Product does work, but requires several passes to get a clean edge. Coarse stones were not included, despite the outside of the packaging indicating they were. Our application is fabric cutting. One layer OK; multiple not so much. The difference is how much pressure is required to make the cut. Leads to arm fatigue and more damage to the cutting mat. We have found several “off brand” rotary blades to give satisfactory results especially those claiming “Japanese steel”. Since it may require 10 minutes to get a reasonable edge, what is your time worth? Would you sharpen your sewing needles?

Sharpening cutting blades

Like the cutter machine but flex is unsafe to use

This item was received without the second pair of sharpening stones. There was supposed to be a set in the machine and another set for damaged blades. The second set are missing. Needless to say that after paying over $100 for this item, I am very disappointed. This item was purchased in Australia from Amazon and it had a USA PLUG ON IT, no mention anywhere about that. Fortunately I owned a step-down convertor that took the USA plug otherwise there would have been no way to use it other than buy another plug or a step-down convertor.

The device arrived with an American plug on the power supply. Luckily I am an electrician and could rectify that. The oil bottle had leaked most of its contents into the packing. Following the instructions carefully, I sharpened two blades. These appeared to be blunter after sharpening than they were before. They would not cut cleanly, indicating perhaps that the edges were too rough after sharpening. We are not happy campers!

The product works as described but when it arrived there was an American plug fitted so I was quite surprised that I had to get an adapter to make it work as it was sold for the English market
