Bought one in 2012 and still going, best one I've used (find it better than the cheapo rotary stone sharpener I was using before but never used an actual professional sharpener, am not worth it or... my knives aren't worth that much :smirk: )

I purchased one recently and I use professional knives. A properly sharpened knife is safest, and this little tool is perfect for restoring the correct edge. BUT, once the edge is restored it shouldn't need to be done again for some time!! Any professional will tell you to use a 'steel' to keep the edge sharp. Continual use of 'AnySharp' or any other similar tool will wear your knife away very quickly. So invest in a good steel too :smile:

No sane person would use this thing on 'professional' knives...
I have nice knives, anyone that went near them with this thing would soon have one embedded in their hand.

Have been £6 in store at Asda forever.
Note I said "in store" before anyone points out they're £8 on their site!
This deal is better if you need it delivered though :smiley:

I have one of these, they're excellent and so easy to use. I don't remember exactly how much I bought it for but it's well worth having in the kitchen - HEAT! :stuck_out_tongue::stuck_out_tongue::stuck_out_tongue:
