WORK SHARPWSCMB Combo Knife Sharpener

Fitted with US plug. Labelled 120V 60Hz. I.e. US model.

Does an excellent job of sharpening. My wife complains knives are to sharp and cots her dish cloths!

I have a WorkSharp Ken Onion Edition sharpener. It's amazing. I ordered this sharpener for those times I don't need an odd angle, or a large setup. Also, I ordered this with the intent of it being an addition to both my hunting rig, and my bug out bag. Having tested recently in the field, it DOES work even when using the power inverter that's factory built into your vehicle (typically their not made for high drain devices), and it does the job well. The unit is quiet when compared to other units, and easy to use as there is one angle that is rigid and impossible to go past the guide setting. You can order Red Label Abrasive belts to give yourself more versatility for really dull knives (or really sharp knives you are just looking to touch up). All in all this is an affordable alternative to the more expensive options in the lineup, it is a great alternative for a bug out bag (and works well with solar panels), and is also a great alternative for your hunting gear to keep those field knives sharp. It is also well received as a gift. I highly recommend for an affordable sharpening solution

This Work Sharp Combo Knife Sharpener is fantastic. I'm one of those guys who could never get a knife sharp with a whetstone. Seriously. With a whetstone I would get close to a good edge then ruin it with one bad stroke. I've also been known to purchase a new knife before a hunting trip because all my other knives were dull. After receiving this sharpener I read the instructions and also watched online videos. The machine is very straight forward, no adjustments to make at all. I was thrilled with the first knife a ran through the machine. In no time it was sharper then it has ever been. RAZOR Sharp!! The guided ceramic bar built in to the machine is the important final touch. I've had this machine less than 24 hours and have already sharpened a dozen pocket knives and several filet knives that I thought where non salvageable.Prior to purchasing this machine, I also purchased the Work Sharp Precision Adjust Knife Sharpener. It also works fantastic but cannot harness thinner blades like small pen knives and some filet knives. If someone wants a sharp knife, whether a carry knife, hunting/fishing knife or a kitchen knife, the Work Shop COMBO Knife Sharpener cannot be beat! Great product. Get some extra belts because you are going to use this machine often.

I read some of the other product reviews and was struck by how many people seem to misunderstand what they bought. Used properly this is a handy contraption. It's a lot less capable than the full-sized Ken Onion edition - but with patience you can achieve a lot.This is not a replacement for a full-size belt grinder. If you're a knife maker it probably could put an edge on a knife blank you DIY'd, but it's going to take a long time on this little unit. The motor is not very powerful, the belt is small and it is spinning pretty slow. If you press the knife with any significant pressure into the belt it will slow the machine down - but that's not how it's supposed to be used.It is better to make more passes with only very light pressure than to press hard or move the blade very slowly to grind extra material. I also like to lift the blade away from the belt once it reaches the tip. If you pull it all the way out it is easy to round the tip (and you'll read lots of complaints about this if you google it).The first time you sharpen a knife it is also important to realize you may be changing the factory grind angle. Especially for kitchen knifes which often have a very steep angle and a delicate edge. Outdoor knives are more likely to already be at or around the angle this machine is set too because they need to stand up to more abuse. Even for kitchen knives though, I'd rather use this belt than those other powered sharpeners that use abrasive stones. Once the angle is set, you won't need to grind as much the next time.Here's a few tricks to maximize utility.1. It comes with a single, non-adjustable preset sharpening angle of 25 degrees. However, you can sharpen at any angle if you find some way to hold the knife steady by hand. The easiest second angle to achieve is to hold the knife vertical for a steeper angle relative to the belt - such as for kitchen knives (though it can be tricky to do this steadily on a long blade).2. Even though the tool is low-powered, it is still basically a mini belt grinder. I remove the guide and use it for non-knife stuff too. E.g. sharpening drill bits, putting a new tip on my awl, fixing up marred flat blade screwdrivers, sharpening gasket scrapers, smoothing small parts etc. The slow speed of the belt and low power can actually be a benefit - you can work slowly.3. Work sharp doesn't sell replacement belts in any other grits - but you can find them. The belt size is 1/2" x 10". Here's a link to a set I bought: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07ZF31KY1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1I'm sure Worksharp offers only one grit on purpose to discourage people from using this base-model unit instead of paying for the better and more expensive versions. The other versions are more powerful and offer more angle options - but with patience and different belt grits I'm confident I'm achieving similar results.4. The hone is also meant to be used gently. Avoid the temptation to push down hard. Better to do 20 super light passes than 3 where you push hard. You're just making sure the edge burr is lined up straight. That's easier to get correct with some light touches than potentially pushing it back and forth with forceful passes on alternating sides.
