Precision Adjust Elite Knife Sharpener - Adjustable Knife Sharpening System - For Hunting, Serrated & Kitchen Knives

Really enjoying using this sharpener and it works great. I could have spent more on a bigger more professional setup but for my purposes this does the trick just fine. It’s compact so it stores easy, quick to setup, and has smooth operation. Got all my knives nice and sharp fairly quick. Three things to make it better- the base could be a little heavier so it doesn’t rock as easy, the clamping system could be a little more secure, and to sharpen a larger knife you really should use a larger sharpener but it works if you sectionalize the knife. I’ll get a kit of use out of this thing.

Very easy to use, maintains same angle so blades are sharpened perfectly. Excellent value for the price. Im 70 and this is the best sharpener I have ever owned!

I have a few knives for EDC and for my workshop, as well as the usual kitchen knife set. I’ve never been happy with the performance of my little Smith’s 2-step, coarse and fine, knife sharpener. I’ve tried using a stone and failed miserably. . After field dressing a deer, this Fall, wishing all the while my knife was sharper, I decided to check out some knife sharpener reviews on YT. The Work Sharp Precision Adjust seemed excellent value at just $60, had great reviews and was simple to operate. I ordered it. . The Work Sharp Precision Adjust is indeed very easy to use. The knife holder has some flexibility to it but to use this sharpener correctly, you do not apply pressure to the stone on the blade. Let the stone do the work. You just move it back and forth. The flex therefore becomes negligible. . My first attempt to sharpen my fixed blade deer knife was good but disappointing in that I couldn’t slice through a sheet of paper. It was sharp but not the promised sharpness. I couldn’t establish the original angle off the cutting edge since I’d changed it with my failed, manual, diamond stone sharpenings. I essentially had to reprofile the edge. This is where I found the Work Sharp Precision Adjust was lacking. It took forever with the lowest grit of 320. Eventually, I sort of got there. Same with my next knife and similarly with my small kitchen knives. All needed some reprofiling. A day or so later, after watching yet more videos, I revisited my knives. This time, I was able to spend a little less time and managed to achieve that awesome paper slice. I think I was able to refine the new profile this time, having remembered the angles I’d used, and didn’t get frustrated like the first time. I also used a 15x loupe to see the edge detail. That’s now a permanent accessory in my sharpening kit. . I concluded that 320 grit was just too fine for an effective reprofile, especially on a longer knife, or one heavily chipped. . I considered returning the $60 Work Sharp Precision Adjust and buying the Work Sharp Precision Adjust Elite kit for another $60 more. The coarser 220 grit included in that kit would no doubt make reprofiling a lot quicker. Then I reckoned that it was just as cost effective, if not more so, to keep what I had and order the upgrade kit. Yes, that is $80 more. However, I keep the existing 320/600/ceramic sharpener from the original Adjust, adding another 3 sharpeners, with one set being an extra of what I already have. You can order new stones for around $7 each. So, I’m actually getting a spare set of 320, 600 and ceramic stones, including another holder, for only $20, versus over $21 for just three individual stones. Better value to spend the $140 for the Adjust and the upgrade kit than the $120 Elite. . Tonight, I used my now-upgraded kit on another folding knife I keep in my truck. I’ve never sharpened that one and it was pretty blunt. I used a Sharpie pen to help establish the cutting edge profile – 25 deg. Starting at 220 grit, it didn’t take long to make the first pass. I moved through each of the stones, refining the edge each time and finished off with the strop. I already have a large strop but the Worksharp strop, keeping the exact edge angle used to sharpen, makes the final step a no-issue breeze. You won’t easily get a mirror polish finish, (that will take more time with the finer stones and ceramic) but without the loupe, the cutting edge looks shiny, clean and it’s razor sharp. That’s all I’m after! . I think that, for the money, this is one of the best sharpeners out there. It’s easy to use once you try it a couple times, and the results are awesome! I do suggest you get the upgrade kit though. Whether you buy the Adjust plus the Upgrade kit, or the Elite itself, you will need those additional stones for reprofiling with ease.

This works great and it’s easy! I didn’t take much math growing up and don’t really know why angle is important in anything other than a divorce lawyers playbook. Unless we’re talking about the angles my ex wife was taking while out with her “co worker”. My knives are sharp and it’s doesn’t take long to get one sharp or swap out stones. I had the Ken Onion edition electric sharpener but this is easier and less messy as well as simpler to use. I’d argue it does a better job as it’s easier to control the amount of material you remove. They call me Kurt now these angles are so good. Heaven must have sent these angles. Ok no more angle puns. Get one if you want sharp knives.

Price was reasonable for the quality of the sharpening system. Assembly was super simple and the instructions provided great insite as to how the system works. The operation of the sharpener was easier than anticipated. The 3 tristones that came with the elite work great. The time it took to sharpen was not bad considering how dull one of my knives were. I needed an upgrade to my current sharpening system( it was a hand held where you spun the wheel to choose the rods to use). Didn't like that one since the day i bought it. This was an excellent choice for a sharpening system. I would even go as far as saying a complete novice would be able to get a great edge on any knife with minimal effort. I will be using this on a regular basis. Not sure if i can get replacement parts though( the trisharp stones, or any part that may break or be consumed)

This is hands down one of the best knife sharpeners I’ve ever used. I’ve tried whetstones in the past, and while I could get a knife “sharp,” I could never truly grasp maintaining the correct angle consistently. Because of that, my results were always hit or miss — sharp, but never this sharp. With this sharpener, the difference is night and day. The guided angle system takes all the guesswork out, and the results are honestly machine-sharp. I’ve never had pocket knives this sharp before. I actually have to be extra careful now, because the edge this puts on a blade is no joke. Even the V-block comes with an insert that literally says “You will be creating incredibly sharp knives. Please handle with care.” — and that ain’t no joke. Just following the system gives you a dangerously sharp edge. The process is simple, controlled, and repeatable. If you’ve struggled with whetstones or inconsistent results in the past, this completely solves that problem. Fantastic tool. Worth every penny. Highly recommended.

I’d prefer the base to be made of something heavier than plastic as it is difficult to bust the stiff spring to rotate the knife 180 but this sharpener works fantastic! All my knives are now like razors. Quick and simple to use. It would be great if you could replace the individual stones and strop with out having to buy the whole set of replacements as many stones don’t get used.

I never leave feedback. I have to for this product. It is amazing, intuitive, and effective. I sharpened my butcher knife and another kitchen knife in about 30 minutes total and they were sharper than when I bought them.

Easy to use with great results

I wanted an easy, professional level sharpening system that just worked! Too many gimmicks or systems that require a high skill level it seems. I chose this over the “professional” version at double the price because I didn’t think it was worth it to ad the digital angle gauge and the small knife holder. I had sharp knives within minutes of opening the box. Watch a video on its use to see some finer points. I tried to use the same motion when I got to the leather strop and it was cutting into the leather. Once I figured out to take shorter, incomplete passes with the leather it was off to the races. When I got to the paring knife I had to play with the knife in the clamp to avoid bumping the holder. This is where I believe the small knife holder would be cool - but you don’t need it if you adjust things to get clearance. Buy this one and most users will be thrilled. If you think you need or want the angle gauge or small knife holder then go for the pro version. I believe it has bigger abrasive plates that may help with keeping alignment as well.

Produto cumpre bem a promessa, é fácil de manusear e de fazer a manutenção, tem que ter um pouco de noção de como fazer, só achei o apoio um pouco “mole” mas nada demais, coloca uma rolha em baixo que está tudo certo. Quebra muito o galho você ter a geometria do ângulo, ainda mais pelo perfil de corte ficar alinhado o que na pedra é necessário muita prática, experiência e noção. Recomendo, acredito que desses afiadores guiados de inicial é muito bom, muito melhor que os chineses mais baratos, claro, não é um Lansky nem um KME, mas cumpre muito bem !

I tried to learn hand sharpening on a water stone and after a few years of not really being satisfied with the results (knives were sharp enough to slice paper, but could struggle with a tomato skin) I broke down and got this guided sharpener. Even after my first use it got my knives sharper than I've ever been able to manage on the water stone. I'm sure there's better guided sharpeners out there that maybe can be attached more securely, hold the knife a little better (it's adequate as long as you don't get too rough and securely place the knife in), or have easier to use sharpening rods (they're a little skinny so you have to be careful not to rock them). But for this price I doubt you're going to find a better one. I also can't speak much to the longevity of the sharpening surfaces, but for light use I'm sure they'll last decently long. Works on pretty much any hard surface, you just have to hold it and be a little careful. Comes apart relatively easily and can store back in it's packaging.

Es un afilador sin igual, simplemente magnífico. Es posible afilar navajas y cuchillos medianos a grandes; las pequeñas navajas Vicrorinox no es posible, son demasiado chicas. El control del ángulo de afilado no tiene igual, yo afilo la mayoría de mis cuchillos a 25°; rara vez afilo a 15° o 20° y prácticamente nunca a 30°. Todo esto es posible con este afilador. Este equipo es delicado, no me parece de uso industrial, para mi es suficiente. Me gustaría tener una gama mas grande de piedras ahora solo tengo los que vienen en la caja, 320, 600, 1200. Será necesario conseguir algunos granos intermedios.
