Miyabi 2-stage Diamond & Ceramic Hand-Held Knife Sharpener

Miyabi handy knife sharpener

The Miyabi Diamond & Ceramic Hand-Held Knife Sharpener makes a quick blade tune-up easy. It is very handy, convenient to keep in the knife drawer, and encourages maintenance of a smooth, sharp edge at the appropriate angle - very important. It does not replace your blocks for the finest, blade-friendly edge, but excellent for touch-ups at each point of use.

no complaints!

handles SG2 steel hardness well. Compact, fits in my knife roll with no issue

Suitable for my finest knives.

I have a 15° electric sharpener I use on my VG10 & X50 knives. I needed something with a smaller angle for my knives with harder steels. In the past, I have felt dual sided draw through non-electric sharpeners did more damage than good. This actually works & well! While not quite as good as stroping or a super fine diamond stone, it doesn't scratch the sides up and leaves a microscopic feathered edge that actually helps you cut tomatoes and such better than a perfectly polished edge. Excellent product!
