SHARPAL 103N All-in-1 Knife and Garden Tool Blade Sharpener, Sharpening and Honing Shears, Secateurs, Lawn Mower Blade, Axe, Pruner, Scissors, Outdoor and Kitchen Knives

Gave this as a present – but it seems to do a good job on a variety of implements.

Great for the kitchen, but you'll never beat a whetstone.

I use a lot of old tools at the allotment, as well as cooking knives and other knives at home. I already own lots of random sharpening tools, none of which are really any good, so I wanted to replace them all with a single all-in-one that actually worked.These kind of fits the bill, but it’s not the miracle-worker that I was hoping it would be. There’s a definite technique required for getting the best out of some of the tools, whilst some of them work instantly without any effort.The bevelled sharpener for secateurs etc is brilliant, really brilliant. A couple of swipes and they’re good and sharp.The wide sharpener for axes etc is pretty good, but sadly can’t cope very well with curved blades like billhooks and sickles due to the geometry of the handle. Shame, but I guess that’s not what it’s designed for.The handle is brilliant, and makes securing the sharpener on a worktop very simple, without need for silly suction cups (which never work properly).The draw-through knife sharpener is…..okay. Just okay. It does a reasonable job, with practice, but doesn’t give the effortless razor edge I was hoping for.The tungsten carbide bar is pretty good, and a good thing to fall back on when the draw-through knife sharpener does nothing to a blade.The white fine honing strip seems to be some kind of bluntener, and will strip the sharp edge off any tool in seconds. Seriously - that’s all it does. Whatever angle or stroke you use to apply it, it just removes any sharp edge from the blade instantly. I guess that could be handy in some situations, but it certainly doesn’t do what the instructions say that it does.Overall, a pretty handy thing to have in your bag or tool box if you just want a single tool for lots of jobs, but I’m not sure it was worth the money when only around half of the sharpening tools are truly useful.

Most sharpener blades work well curved blades a little more difficult

Bought this to sharpen garden tools mainly and it does a good job....alot cheaper than buying new garden tools !

Liked the size and multifunction size nothing to dislike

The handle and accessibility is good, non slip, also good. Variety of tools can be sharpened with this tool.Keeps my kitchen knives in tiptop shape, which is safer than a blunted knife. I had been using the small round sharpener, which was fine for knives, this one is useful for lots more tools.Would recommend this and would purchase again.

Works really good, ive had several of these types of sharpener and this is by far the best, it doesnt give a razor edge but good enough to cut tomatoe skin no troubles
