    Bought this a few years ago and just hopping on now to leave a review after today. I literally just completely reprofiled and sharpened a S30V steel blade with this. Before that? I have sharpened/reprofiled/fixed SEVERAL standard knives with softer steels on this.

    I really like that it pivots when you run your knife across, it REALLY helps with getting the tip of the knife. If you’ve been sharpening off stones for a while prior to this it will take a sec to get used to.

    This really is all you need. I prefer this over sharpening systems because there aren’t any restrictions. You can work angles you want, repair specific areas etc. I wouldn’t even bother with the sharpening guides: just take the time to learn freehand and you’ll be rewarded later.

    The only thing I would like is if the whole set/stones were just a bit bigger. But hey for under 50 bucks for a complete package like this that will literally sharpen your hardest steels? No complaints here. Seriously, this may be the only set you’ll need.

    This is the best sharpener I’ve used since I learned to use a whetstone in Boy Scouts 60 years ago. From Arkansas stones to water stones to Lansky kits to ceramic rods in the upright V configuration, honestly I’ve always been satisfied. If you know how to sharpen, and I had good teachers, you can get good results with any decent-quality stone or system.

    And then I decided on a whim to try the Benchstone. The price is very reasonable so why not?

    I’m so glad I did. I’ve taken kitchen knives that had chips and nicks back to tomato-slicing sharpness with minimal time and effort. The combination of the 3 stones, with the angle guide, makes getting a great edge so easy. Maintaining an edge can’t be more simple. A few strokes on the 600, a few strokes on the ceramic, and a few passes on my strop and we’re back to a shaving edge.

    My go-to kit for the last 15 years has been the Lansky. I get great results from it. But it’s a lot more fiddly than the Benchstone. Instead of having to set up the rods and stones over again for each level of grit, on the Benchstone I just set up the stone I want to start with and get to work. It’s always ready for edge repair or a quick touch-up.

    Thank you, Work Sharp, for creating this awesome piece of kit. The only mistake you made is that I may not be buying one of your powered sharpeners like the Ken Onion Edition. The Benchstone meets my needs so well!

    This is one of many worksharp products I own. It is also my favorite. The guides make for a quick, and fast sharpening experience. The pivot response is great for smaller knives. Makes quick work on all of my different knives, and scissors. Great if you’re an expert sharpener. Or if you’re just starting out. You can go wrong with the Benchstone.
