Micro 100 KS-1 Speedy Sharp Knife Sharpener (Fivе Расk)

I got my first speedy sharp as a stocking stuffer. When I got it I smiled, and thanked everybody profusely; while I thought “what cheap b@$)*% got me this dollar store reject!” Out of sheer boredom one day I decided to compare it to my Wustoff ceramic stick sharpener. Holy smokes! The speedy sharpener worked not just well, but it was amazing. It has become my go to sharpener ever since. I bought everybody I knew one for Christmas a few years later, and I could see the look on their faces that I knew so well. Unfortunately no amount of explaining could make them understand. I even demonstrated it a few times. A year later my mother was over for thanksgiving and she genuinely asked me how I kept my knives so razor sharp. I just slowly beat my head against the wall as I had given her a speedy sharp for Christmas the year before. You’ll love this sharpener, and you’ll want everybody you know to have one, but good luck convincing friends and family how amazing it is when you give them out for Christmas the next year!

Neat little tool, works fine for sharpening stubborn items like a lawnmower blade or tools around the shop. The reason I gave it 3 stars instead of 5 is because its advertised as a knife sharpener. This is probably one of the worst tools I've used to sharpen a knife. It takes a lot of work, a lot of practice, and a lot of skill. I watched countless videos trying to get the technique down and once I did my pocket knife was still no where near as sharp as when I use sharpening stones or a guided sharpening system. It's cheap enough to be handy to have around for certain things but there are much better methods (for similar and more money) for sharpening a knife. The other thing to watch out for is its easy to take off TOO much steel with this sharpener and ruin your blade.

Impressed by the results from the Speedy Sharp. Put an edge on some work knives at the restaurant in which I work that had been seriously abused and were quite dangerous due to their dullness. I had tried a few methods to improve their edges and failed. Speedy Sharp created a new bevel and an acceptable sharpness within 20 strokes and we can now use those knives to easily cut tomato slices without endangering ourselves. N.B.: this product will definitely take off some metal so be careful with the pressure applied with your forward strokes.

I am very pleased with the Speedy Sharp and I've already used it to sharpen my lopers, hand pruners and even household scissors. The videos online are very helpful although there are also instructions on the package. A fellow gardener recommended this to me and I'm so happy they did. I've always struggled with trying to get dull blades sharp again and this nifty tool makes it very easy. Bravo!

This tool consists of a carbide "blade" welded into a solid handle, coated with a non-slip plastic. It's great for sharpening (easy does it so as not to remove too much material), and can be used for other uses as well. I use it for 3D printing to trim edges of printed pieces, and remove material from grooves that have support fill in them. As sharp as it is, you need to be careful. It appears to never wear out since the carbide blade is very tough and hard material. Excellent tool to have available. Buy the original - made in USA

Ok, so I'm giving a 5 for me, but for someone who doesn't know what they're doing its not gonna go well. Takes skill to get the best out of this tool, but if you can take the time to work it well, WOWSo this has become my favorite sharpener. Hands down. Its an axe file, sharpening stone, and butchers steel all in one. I've sharpened all the knives in the house to the point that they can all shave hair off my arm and off my face, and did so in a matter of minutes per knife! So I get how the carbide works to set the bevel, but I have no idea how the honing method is so effective. Its absolutely bananas. If you're struggling to use this start by coloring the edge with a marker to see if you hit the edge, use a SUPER light touch and gradually increase pressure to it starts cutting, then when you have a good burr just gone till its gone completely on both sides. I'm beyond impressed with this tool! 10/10

I've sharpened every pair of scissors, knife, blade, etc. in the house with this tool. It has performed very well so far to restore the cutting edge on everything. It's so much easier then using my dedicated kitchen knife sharpening device.Follow the directions on the back of the package and you'll have no issues. With a little patience, you can even sharpen nail clippers. It is a bit difficult on small fingernail clippers; easier for toenail clippers. Don't forget garden shears, the little cutting blade for line trimmers, etc. This thing does it all.

This sharpener does come with a "steel" on the back to use after sharpening but it requires skill to hold the sharpener against the blade. I'm used to an accusharp and when I tried sharpening my elk ridge knife with the speedy sharp it seemed duller then before. I tried sharpening my kitchen knifes and only slightly improved them. This isn't the tool for hobbyists like me. Perhaps an expert can use it better.

I like this sharpener, because it works well, improving my pruners immensely. There's not much to it, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 in value for money. I gave it 4 out of 5 for giftable for the same reason - I doubt the recipient would think you'd paid $20 plus tax for it. All that said, if you want a reliable sharpener for your garden tools, this does the trick.

I have used this model sharpener for a few years; one at home and one at cottage. Works well.One needs to be careful though as it has sharp edges and you could easily cut themselves. I wouldhave rated higher except for this safety issue. It has a sharpening edge cover but onecan easily cut themselves in the process of removing it.

I have purchased other sharpening devices. This sharpener beat it with no problems. It sharpens everything. Even bread knife. I give my knifes a little tweak now and then. My wife tells me to stop sharpening them! I highly recommend this sharpener.

Muy buena opción para el taller. Requiere algo de práctica obtener un buen filo pero despues es muy fácil. Lo he usado en cuchillos, navajas y tijeras y he obtenido resultados aceptables

This little device is amazing for sharpening everything. It can be tricky to find the perfect way to use it but once you do it makes sharpening a breeze. Wet stones are nice for getting a clean blade at the beginning but for maintenance and bush sharpening, nothing can beat this.
