Just got one this weekend. Spend labor day weekend sharpening all my knives...except i didnt spent all weekend sharpen my knives as this thing took care of it all within an hour or 2. Worked great, time saver and simple to use. Would highly recommend.

Just bought one of these tonight. I’m totally stoked to start sharpening my knife collection. Thank you.

[larrykaminski]

Thank you for the video. I just opened the box so now can follow your instructions.

This is the best purchase I've EVER made for my knives holy crap 3 passes on each side with the red belt and my pocket knife is SCARY sharp! 🔥

[bentheredonethat]

Finally ordered mine. It arrived a few hours ago and absolutely BRILLIANTLY Cut up several ribeyes like butter

My grandpa bought me the first one they made for Christmas a couple years ago now I want this one.

I own the original [ Ken onion edition] still works like a champ. And I use it weekly. I'm a cook @ mandalay bay so I put my knives thru alot and I need to sharpen alot. It's also given me a little side hustle. I sharpen my coworkers knife 🔪 for only $10 a knife. This tool has paid itself over and over fast easy and just awesome 👌. No need for a 2.0 for me. I'm a happy OG customer 😌 ☺️

Expecting to get one of these babies for Christmas. Can't wait to get to sharpening and thank you for demonstrating the different blade types! I have serrated knife, gut hook, thumb pegs, etc. This answered my questions before I even knew I had them.

[salgonzalez]

Just got one, I’m so excited to use it.

[bmoraski]

Just ordered . Can't wait to use.

I just used this thing for the first time on my EDC D2 steel pocket knife. Frickin’ game changer!!!! No more soaking my rocks for hours, looking for the water flash at the edge…. Love this thing!!! To all that know nothing about sharpening, I own wet stones (high dollar; gathered them all in Japan at their Mecca) and can put a sharpness on blades that outperform new utility knife blades. Work sharp is a close second for sure. But the flexibility in sharpening odd blades is genius with this Work Sharp. I own electric sharpening devices, but this one has my 👍. Trust me it is well worth the cost. My issue with many electric sharpening devices is that they don’t offer replacement sharpening parts (wheels, etc). So when they are cashed out, you have to buy the whole device again. Work Sharp offers inexpensive belts. Not gonna lie, if your a novice or expert in knife sharpenin….you need this!!!!

Pros: it gets your blades very sharp, and puts a curved bevel on the blade (structural integrity). Cons: the only con I see is that you have to have a consistent steady hand while sharpening. Pull straight through without deviation and you’re golden. If you know nothing about sharpening, then you need this in your life!

Got my work sharp today, not try to suck up to work sharp but my knifes haven't been this sharp in years even strait from factory.

[dadfixdit]

Mine just came today! Watched your video and had an insanely sharp kitchen knife in about 3 minutes. Thanks Work Sharp!!

[richrychlewski]

Great knife sharpener, it definitely reduces the time to properly sharpen any knife or tool and puts a razor sharp edge on my hunting knives. Two thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻

[monkeyseemonkeydo]

Got mine today. I was skeptical at first but in 10 min I turned my incredibly dull and chipped Becker bk2 into a chip free, razor sharp utility knife

[swisswildpicsswp]

I received my WorkSharp MkII this morning and sharpened a couple blades before going to work.
It works nicely but I should've watched your video first. I sure could practice my technique.

[gigilaco]

As a new buyer I had no idea what the difference was between the Mk. 2 and the Ken Onion Mk. 2 on Amazon. I didn’t see any comparisons on the page and I thought it was aesthetic. Man I wish I would’ve gotten the Ken Onion Mk. 2

[skippylippy]

All my knives are razor sharp thanks to Work Sharp!

[BigBossSalazar]

This thing works great! I just sharpened my first knife, a chef's knife, and it is razor sharp.

[psvideogamelover]

Just got this for Christmas yesterday and have a bunch of knives that I'm looking to sharpen. Gonna start with my cheaper ones first to get it going. Thanks for the great videos and discussions!
