A little surprised no one mentioned the Spyderco Sharpmaker. This put my Lansky set in the storage drawer.
I have a set of ceramic stick sharpeners made by Steamboat Sharpeners in Florida. Best set I have ever owned. Actually has two sets on one base, one course and one fine. Called them up to try and buy another set for a Christmas present several years back and a older lady answered the phone and said the company was her late husbands and closed up when he died. Sure wish someone had picked it up when he passed.
I know this doesn't help but still the best sharpener I own.
I know a stone works best. I have a stone but sharpening knives on it feels like a chore, especially when I'm in the middle of a project like cutting up a deer. I just want to put an edge on quickly and get on with my task. Any recommendations on a simple pull-through sharpener?ok folks I can't sharpen a knife to save my life. What model would you suggest for my unfortunate lack of skills? I have been looking at the electric versions, but would also like to use them for shears best Japanese whetstone, pruners, etc. if at all possible. Any suggestions?
