Just one chop, and my sandwich cuts in half, just like brand new when I first bought it.It is indisputable that the sharpest knives are produced in Japan.

A very efficient ceramic roller knife sharpener from Japan. It includes medium and coarse rollers and a water bath system. The design, which is based on the Japanese bullet train, includes a very comfortable handle. It is important to note that there are three models of this knife sharpener.

If you are not inclined to use a sharpening steel or whetstone - the minosharp knife sharpener will produce excellent results with very little effort. A larger version of the original minosharp water sharpener. It is suitable for both European and Japanese style knives, so long as they have a straight edge. Not suitable for serrated knives or for knives which are sharpened on one side only. It washes away steel residue– Water cleans both the blade as well as the ceramic abrasive of any steel residue that results from sharpening. Cleaning the abrasive in particular ensures it remains clean at all times, and is not loaded with steel.Should not be used for Global knives with chamferred blades, which are sharpened on one side only. These knives should always be sharpened on a whetstone. The Minosharp Plus 3 has 3 sets of sharpeners - fine, medium and coarse. The ceramic wheels are larger and longer lasting, than the wheels on the original minosharp. The sharpener is sturdy, and has very good quality big ceramic stones. The ceramic stones are made in Japan, and the plastic is made in China. I would definitely trust the made in Japan quality, because they never fail me.

The sharpener really lived up to its expectation, and i'm really loving it! I even used a piece of paper to test the sharpness of it like the demo I saw on youtube. Water Makes A Big Difference!– Water is what distinguishes this sharpener from all the other pull through’s. And if you think otherwise, you’d be very mistaken. Allow me to explain. Coating the ceramic abrasive with water serves to accomplish two things: My global knife G4 has been with me for 5 years now, and it has some chips damaged by cutting hard bones and having a crappy knife sharpener just doesn't do t he job for me anymore.Retains Its Simplicity And Ease Of Use – The Minosharp Plus is uncomplicated, and actually very easy to use. This should be the most obvious and least surprising of the pros in this review. One look at the product pictures and you’d already have an idea of how this thing is supposed to work! The wheels are color coded as white to be the coarse grit and pink to be the medium grit. Some people are not sure how much water to add to the compartment and the answer to this, is you add enough water such that when you spin the sharpening wheels, they are evenly lubricated with water. Rule of thumb: It’s always best to add less water than more!

Minosharp Plus 3 Ceramic Water Sharpener 550 - Black/Red

Like the MinoSharp, the MinoSharp Plus has two sharpening wheels, one rough and one medium. The are the exact same grits as the wheels in the MinoSharp only larger. Not only do the larger wheels create a longer lasting edge, they are also more powerful than the smaller wheels. This sharpener can return a sharp edge to a dull knife.It makes the process less aggressive– If you’ve ever seen someone use a ceramic water stone, you may have noticed how smooth and natural it looks. There is no resistance and the edge is slowly worked to perfection. Water plays a huge part in this as it reduces the friction and heat. It makes sharpening feel unforced! MinoSharp produces a full range of products and accessories to sharpen knives. All of the products are easy to use, come with simple instructions and will sharpen your knives as well or better than they were when they were new. These guide rails are designed to help maintain the correct angle for sharpening knives when sharpening with a whetstone. The angle is between 10 and 15 degrees. There are 3 different kits, one containing a rough (240 grit) stone, one containing a medium (1000 grit) stone, and one containing a super fine (6000 grit) stone. Each kit contains a stone, a set of guide rails and a plastic holder which doubles as a storage box and a base to elevate the stone above a counter during sharpening. The storage box is ventilated so that the whetstone will dry if it is put into the box while still wet. The guide rails are sold as a set which includes a small and large guide rail. The small guide rail is suitable for knives with blade lengths less than 6". The large guide rail is suitable for knives larger than 6". The guide rails are lined with plastic to minimize scratching on the knives during their use. Any time you remove one of the guide rails from your knife, rinse and clean it thoroughly to remove any residue from the stone that may remain inside the guide rail. To further insure that no residue remains, it is recommended that you pull a clean towel through the guide rail after rinsing. If you fail to remove all the residue from the guide rail, the residue may scratch the knife the next time the guide rail is used.
