Chef's Choice Diamond Hone Manual Sharpener for Serrated Knives Review

Average Reviews:
3.5 out of 5 stars

(More customer reviews)The sharpener is made of high quality rugged plastic & has a V shaped groove with great quality diamond abrasives to do the sharpening it is capable of.
Ihave the other Chef's sharpener #432 for straight blades & it works fine.
The 32 cutting points on my 6" steak knives are 1/16" wide at the tip.
Basically 2 3/4" of my 6" steak knife is now sharp.
As the knife points wear away & become wider more of the total knife blade will be sharp.
Some of my good knives have 1 bevel & are asymetrical, off center.
IWill Not Use this sharpener on any single beveled knife period.
I Do Not Like the double sided diamond V groove for any knife other than double beveled knives, symmetrical, centered.
The V groove could be better if only 1 side of the V groove had diamonds.
Iwas however dissapointed that it only sharpens the points.
I'm also somewhat dissapointed that my serrated knife points will eventually wear away & become & or act more like a fine straight edge blade.
Theres a plus side when using this sharpener if you own cheap steak knives, it will help help reshape the knife points.
Quality steak knives have somewhat rounded points to avoid scratching your dinner plates.
After all what I really want after sharpening is a true genuine sharp serrated knife edge.
Most quality knives when brand new have both sharpened points & gullets or scallops in between the teeth.
Bottom line advice..
All knives & bevels should be re-sharpened / restored the way they were sharpened at the factory for the best cutting performance.
