  1. Having dull knives is maddening. No matter what claims manufacturers make, all knives get dull. I
    have a gift crtificate for Sharper Image and they have a knife sharpener for about $140. (I forget
    the maker) Is it worth it? Do they work well? What about serated knives? You cant find that info on
    the internet. You need "word of mouth" Word? Thank U.

    A good knife sharpener is invaluable if you handle many knives. Serrated knives usually require
    special sharpening devices, due to their unnatural angle. The sharpener is well worth the price.

    Shopping around for one that will handle the serrations is also a good idea, but that can wait if
    your $140 unit won't handle them.

    I have one of these, and it makes and keeps my knives razor sharp! Inexpensive and easy to use. It's
    getting time to replace it tho', but I've been using it for about 5 years.

    This is where I got it too.

    great (and sometimes not so great) words of knowledge:

    I have a "Chef's Choice" and it is great (also does serrated edges). I use it about once a month and
    it keeps the knives literally razor sharp. They also stand behind their product. I had the #3 disk
    come loose and they repaired it at no charge.

  5. That looks like a copy of the Chef's Choice 120. I would go with the
    tried and true original. My review is at

    It *is* the Chef's Choice. You can see the "Chef's Choice" logo on the sharpener in the picture on
    the Sharper Image website.
