Miyabi 2-Stage Diamond/Ceramic Handheld Knife Sharpener

Sharpen my Miyabi knives well. Easy to use. Regained the edge back on my knives.

Brought back my Japanese knives to its brand new sharpness. Worth the price

I have a set of both Shun & Miyabi knives, which I previously sharpened with both Diamond and Wet Stones. This Japanese pull thru ceramic sharpener worked so much more easily and better. Previously have been disapointed with such devices when used for western 25° knives.

Worked great on my older inexpensive knife set, want to get a better sharpener for my newer “nice” knives.

We have half a dozen Miyabi knives and have had them sharpened at knife shops in the past. We were never really impressed with the results. As a result, they just didn't get sharpened for about three years. We don't live anywhere near a place that sharpens knives so I tried this sharpener. All six Miyabi knives are now very sharp and the blades look good (tiny nicks are gone). I've only done this once for each knife so that's why my review title includes "so far".

Junk. Not meant for a MIYABI knife. Cuts at the wrong angle. I am honestly surprised that they put their name on this. Not a Wet Stone expert so I have only two options to keep my knife’s sharp 1) Send them out to a professional or 2) last resort step up to a very expensive angle guided stone set up to keep the correct edge from factory. This sharpener will be retuned

I think I've got it figured, but no instructions in package.

I’ve yet to require sharpening for my newer Miyabi knives, but I did use the two stage sharpener on an older Chef’s knife, and it made a noticeable improvement in its sharpness. I suspect my old Chefs knife is of the Western angle, rather than the European more narrow angle, but, from now on, it’s probably going to be European. If this two stage knife sharpener maintains the same sharp angle of my new Miyabi kitchen knives, I’ll be very happy. So far all the knives pass the paper test, as I hone them after each use and have even stripped some of them with a heavy leather belt, leaving them razor sharp.

incredible sharpener for ASIAN knives I love it is very good effective .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried this sharpener with my old Zwilling knife, and just after few swipes, it’s almost back to how it cutted when I first bought the knife! Totally recommend this item!
