Knife Sharpeners

[Ghost Hunter]

Anybody have any experience with the Wicked Edge system?  Picked one up at the Portland Sportsman Show yesterday.  I had a Kershaw Echo that I broke the tip off of a few years ago.  They worked my tip job over a bit, and made it sharper than it had ever been.  Convinced me.  A little pricey but easy too use and lots of options.

I've got one.  I bought it close to 10 years ago.  I think they have made some improvements since then.  I love mine.  Some of the power sharpeners (worksharp, etc.) may be faster, but for a stone system that gives you very accurate angles this system is hard to beat.

Been looking for some kind of sharpener for around the house. Wow those are spendy.

I got a couple of Smiths DRET retractable sharpeners off of amazon (very cheap-around $8.00)  and I really like em.  Small and compact, easy to keep in your pocket or backpack and do a really fine job of touching up your blade in the field and I'm able to put a good edge on if I take my time with them around the house.

I took advantage of $200 off clearance show price on last years model.  But yes, pricey.

I've had the Ken Onion Work Sharp for a few years now and use it all the time, everything from ceramic kitchen knives to lawn mower blades.  Very easy to use and I can get everything sharp that I use it for.  Works great for polishing trigger parts, too.

My Lansky does a good job and is $600 cheaper than the Wicked Edge. It may not be AS precise or QUITE as easy to use, but holy cow!!! $600+ for a sharpener?!?!

I've got a work sharp manual sharpener was less than a hundred and gets my blades shaving sharp. I love a sharp blade but couldn't imagine spending hundreds in a system.

I like the Lansky also.  Had mine for over a decade and it does a great job.  From looking at the wicked edge it seems to be very similar in design, not quite how they are justifying the expensive price.

At home it's a Work Sharp.  In the field or where there's no electricity I use an EZE Lap Diamond.  The latter is very compact and I carry it in my pack always.
