Knife Sharpening FAQ's

Reliable knife sharpening system designed to give you razor-sharp edges with minimal effort.

At Work Sharp Easy, we recommend the Precision Adjust Elite Knife Sharpener or the Rolling Knife Sharpener. These systems combine adjustable angles (15°–30°), seven abrasive grits, and guided control—making them ideal for kitchen knives, pocket knives, and tools. They’re fast, reliable, and built for consistent results.

Our systems make sharpening easy—even for beginners.

  • Select the correct sharpening angle using the adjustable guide 
  • Start with a coarser grit and move to finer abrasives 
  • For the Rolling Knife Sharpener, let the roller guide your stroke evenly 
  • Finish with the fine grit or honing rod for a razor-sharp edge
