Robert Welch Hand-Held Knife Sharpener. MULTI AWARD WINNING DESIGN - The Ceramic Wheel Sharpens Blades To Exact 15° Angle. 10 Year Guarantee.

Works really well. Simple to use. l now have 4, very sharp, knives and can keep them sharp. (which is much safer than using blunt knives)

I am very impressed so far. It is a fairly simple piece of kit, but it really sharpens knives. I guess it is the design that keeps knives at the right angle, which makes the difference. I will be interested to see how long it lasts before I have to replace the grinding wheel. So far, it feels like very good value, from a very reputable knife maker.

This is without doubt the best and easiest sharpener I have ever used. We have a really old and damaged but loved kitchen knife. It took quite a few strokes to get the blade sharp again but my goodness it now slices tomatoes thinly with ease. I then did other knives not so badly worn and had them razor sharp in a few strokes. I then had a go at my pocket knife, it achieved an amazing edge, it was slicing paper so easily. I was so impressed I immediately bought one each for my kids.

Unlike the sharpeners which strip the metal from the blade this is a more sensible approach which mimics stone hand sharpening. The safety guard interferes with the knife travel at the handle end but it's no worse than the wear pattern from using a sharpening steel. Blunt knifes cause accidents so keeping yours sharp is a must. If you're not especially handy with a sharpening steel then this is an excellent alternative. In fact I now use my steels infrequently.

A little expensive, but a great knife sharpener not just for Paul Welch knives, but other good knives. I wouldnt recommend using it foor really blunt or damaged blades IMHO. Sharpens to the perfect 15 degrees instead of the usual 20+ degrees most knives are. If you have never had a sharp knife, go careful with them after using this!

Brilliant for sharpening knives than any other method. Easy to use and safe.

Having recently bought a high quality (very expensive) Robert Welch (RW) knife, I wanted a sharpener to match. As many will know there's quite a choice of sharpeners out there. In the end, I chose RW's own as, logically, it should match the quality of their knives. Yes, I had taken note of some of the negative reviews. However, I'm pretty sure that some of these are, as is often the case, user error. I've read & applied the instructions carefully. The RW sharpener does a great job, used properly, and I've even managed to sharpen some scissors. You get what you pay for, usually, and this product isn't overpriced for its ease of use & performance.

Brilliant - so much better than the circular ones on instagram. Totally recommend
