AnySharp Knife Sharpener with PowerGrip, Silver, One Size
Info added by @PD2K79
Details
Save your old knives
Whether you’re slicing meat, dicing vegetables, or carving the Sunday Roast, a sharp blade makes cutting effortless. AnySharp restores a super sharp cutting edge to blunt knife blades that have dulled with use.
Works with all your knives
Hardened steel The AnySharp uses tungsten carbide technology to extend the life of almost any knife. AnySharp works on virtually any knife, including expensive hardened steel knives.
Serrated knives
AnySharp even works with serrated blades* (like bread knives and hunting knives), making it unlike any knife sharpener, steel or sharpening stone you’ve ever used.
*Not very fine toothed serrated knives.
No skill required
The optimum angle to sharpen a good quality steel knife is 20 degrees. AnySharp is pre-set at 20 degrees to give an optimum edge every time. Getting a consistent angle with a sharpening stone is a skilled job, but AnySharp allows anyone to get professional results without any training at all.
AnySharp is Safer by Design
Hands free safety The AnySharp’s safety feature is its PowerGrip suction cup base, which attaches securely to any smooth surface or worktop without the need for any tools. Once it’s attached you can sharpen any knife safely hands free.
Knife edge safety
When your whole knife has been run through, your knife edge may touch as it exits the sharpening tools. The AnySharp has a long-lasting polymer guiding top that is softer than metal, and therefore won’t damage the metal edge, making it safe for your knives too.
Easy, light strokes
With a totally blunt knife, AnySharp will hone it to an optimal angle, and remove excess metal rapidly the first time you use it. AnySharp does not work well with heavy strokes or too much pressure.
Please use only light pressure.
Store it easily and conveniently out of the way
Since it is so small and light, AnySharp can be easily tidied away in a drawer, cupboard, or tool box when not needed. AnySharp is small enough to store in your kitchen drawer. You could even PowerGrip it to your fridge or tiled kitchen wall, out of the way yet handy when you need it.

sorted byI didn’t have to sharpen it for ages. After a year or so I used a sharpener on it and now I have to sharpen it weekly, or every 2 weeks. I Usually only chop veg as well, it’s not like I’m using it to cut anything hard.
Is this in my head? Or have I ruined the knife?
how often are you supposed to sharpen knives?
Lower quality knives with softer metal might need sharpening every 3-4 weeks or so.
If the knife is being sharpened improperly afterwards or the whetstone isn't good enough, it's pretty likely that it can't retain its edge for long.
Coming from a sushi knife instructor, so I've had my fair time with knives. I'm the knife snob everyone mentions on this thread (edited)
I have one of these. They're great to very quickly get a knife sharp, but they do take a lot of metal off the knife and destroy the bevel.
Maybe you don't care, if you sharpen infrequently then you'll probably never notice or care. If you care enough to spend hundreds on your knives then you won't want to use this. I don't, but I also spent hundreds on whetstones because I'm very much a knife snob. Different markets entirely.
I actually need a knife sharpener so I'm not sure whether this'll be good enough. My knives were bought from ProCook
I have one of these, pretty good but after a while it no longer stuck to the kitchen surfaces with its vacuum seal. I now have to hold it in place with one hand … still have all my digits … for now (edited)
5 years on with multiple use a day and that knife is as sharp as when I bought it. Granted it's lost a couple mill in size from sharpening but it's incredible. Before this thing I went through knifes every other year
These should also be listed under yoyos as like Asda who also stock them, they go in and out of stock very fast.
This price would be the plastic body version, the metal body one, is more expensive.
£6 you can't go wrong. I've tried quite a few methods including diamond sharpeners and get good results with them all!
