Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of MinoSharp 220/GB Ceramic Wheel Water Sharpener, Grey/Black
Customer Review: Works well
Summary: 4 Stars
I haven't managed to get them up to factory new sharpness, (but it works much better than just using a the diamond steel).
About 10 firm passes with the sharpner then a couple of strokes on the diamond 'steel' to finish them up.
I've a couple of the blades which are too thick for the plastic shroud. I just remove it, and keep the blade at the correct angle.
Customer Review: must have for global owners
Summary: 4 Stars
This is simply the tool to use on Global knives and on the Furi asian knife. It puts a great edge on both and does so quickly. It may look cheaply made, but when Mayflower lost mine in a move recently, it was one of the first things that I had to replace right away. It works very well and I wouldn't be without it. Unfortunately, it isn't for every knife...just the Globals and Furis.Customer Review: Great for Globals
Summary: 4 Stars
Definitely does great on sharpening the Globals. Barely any effort, seems fool-proof. Doesn't restore the blade completely, but much faster and easier than a stone and a ceramic honer (which I've dropped and broken 3 in the past 8 years or so). I tried it with other knives and gave up after a while, seems to take a lot more strokes with minimal improvement.Customer Review: Sharpens..Yes, Factory Sharp..No!!
Summary: 4 Stars
While it does sharpen my Global G2 very good, it never gets to Factory sharpness. The blade is very usable when sharpened with this thing and some how I prefer it that way.... I was always cutting myself when it was new. Now I can control it better. One day I might get it professionally sharpened but for now I love it NOT AS SHARP!Customer Review: A little better than the Chef's Choice
Summary: 4 Stars
Produces an OK edge, faster than and sharper than the similar Chef's Choice, but the knife still needs a few quick swipes with a steel to be really sharp, at least for me. Works for both Global and non-Global knives.
