Versatility- even with just the 17/20 degree guides those cover a lot of common use blades and can be take off for held up to quite a lot of use in a few years of use. The plates are worn but have lasted a bit longer than I originally thought they would but could new version of guides be made similar to the Benchstone’s with better softer larger guide pads? I’d still be happy with just more angle PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN COMPANY - Work Sharp is a 4th-generation family owned company in Ashland, Oregon. For over 40 years we have been engineering industry-leading sharpening tools here in the USA. Parts- the fact that almost all the parts are available to replace if you wear them out or break them is a big selling pointAlso available separately as replacement spares: Coarse Diamond Plate, Fine Diamond Plate,Large Ceramic Rod with 3 Positions, Small Ceramic Rod,Leather Strop. To ensure a fair comparison, both systems will be used to sharpen the knives to a 15-degree angle per side. The process involves removing a significant amount of material, resulting in a tall bevel. After sharpening, the knives will undergo multiple tests, including a paper test, microscopic examination, and measurement using the BESS tester. blades during use. I have a small brush I clean stones with during use that solves this issue. This is just a caveat of The first test involves examining the edges under the digital microscope. The knife sharpened on the original Precision Adjust exhibits a consistent and tall bevel, with some minor scratches from previous grits. Kyle used a sawing technique to power through the material, ensuring a sharp result. Despite slightly less rigidity in the PA’s plastic construction, the bevel’s consistency is commendable.

Great Great Great sharpener. The diamond stones are at 20 degrees and then the ceramic shifts to 25 degrees to produce a micro bevel with the final strop also at 25 degrees for finishing. the plate holder can be taken out completely and used freehand to sharpen things like axes/ oddly shaped orDurability/ Longevity- As a knife maker I use mine way way more often and under harder conditions than the average consumer and the unit has it sliding. For an easy to store compact unit it’s good as is but minor molding adjustment wouldn’t make the foot print much larger but Higher grit stone/ plate options- 1200-1500 + diamond or possibly preferred ceramic equivalent that comes with the Benchstone

im no expert on knife sharpening but this semms to work good ,wwhen i got it i thought theres no instructions with it but they are inside it the sides are held on by magnets once again another fast delivery byHH The guided sharpener is easily 4 star unit for the price that should be 5 star with minor updates/ addons. I am a knifemaker and have used this to set /make new edges on various hard stainless and tool steels for the past few years and it sees much more use than the average home user is likely to put it through. I got both the extra coarse and extra fine stones as the 220 extra coarse really does take off a lot of material to help establish new edges or for home use repair damaged edges. The extra fine topping out at 800 grit which realistically for sharpening is still a rough medium level stone does fairly well to finish with reasonable working edges coupled with finishing stropping. The 800 grit is by no means a very fine edge and is one of the flaws, there should be diamond stones that go over 1k grit, jumping to something like a 1200-1500 grit would likely be enough, still medium sharpening grit but much more refined edge than anything sub 1k grit. Many modern steels have high hardness and large amounts of carbides that can be both sharpened at high grit and maintain quality sharpness for long periods of time, finer grit edge doesn’t always mean longer edge holding but would be good to have the option. The other option that seems like it should be possible would be making highest grit ceramic plate like they have on the newer Bench tri stone. I have used the Benchstone and I would also call that a solid 4 star unit for moderate home use but it definitely is built cheaper overall but solid for average home use. The Guided Sharpener is a more robust, more adaptable unit for harder & more frequent use, basically it’s got more metal vs plastic in the build. The Guided or Benchstone from work sharp are the main options I recommend to customers looking for affordable easy to use units, & the Field Sharpener is tops for away from home use. Guides- I cover top of guides with masking tape as they can scratch blade surfaces, minor but an issue to be aware of

Even with caveats I believe this to easily be the superior option compared to replacing but the average consumer should get several years of use before worrying about replacing worn plates.
