•• The Test! ••
I sharpened a cheap Chef's knife from Tomodachi. You might have seen them at Costco. They come as part of a $20, multicolor kit. Mine is piercing blue. Even though I have better knives, I can't bring myself to get rid of it. The problem is, it tends to dull very quickly, as its not made to last.
Well, I resharpened it, which took about 2 minutes of scrutinizing, and it looks good as the day I bought it. I also tested it on my worst pair of scissors, and they once again arts and crafts like a champ.
•• How to Sharpen ••
YouTube "how to use AccuSharp." AccuSharp itself recommends flipping your blade upside down and running the AccuSharp over it. You'll know what I mean when you watch a single video.Be firm but controlled. Slippage is unlikely, but it's possible. I like how the AccuSharp has a simple guard for that sort of thing. If you're using enough pressure (and it doesn't take a ton) there will be tiny steel shards falling off, so I recommend picking an area that's clean and clear like an empty table or counter top. Repeat as many times as necessary (usually 5 or so to strip off all the nicks in the steel).
•• Next, Hone Sweet Hone... wait, what's honing? ••
You may have seen Chef Gordon Ramsay on TV "sharpening" his knives. He grabs a steel rod looking thing and slashes his knife up and down it with incredible speed and ferocity. In actuality, he's not sharpening his knife; he's honing it.
It's like this. SHARPENING is stripping the steel layers off, exposing a sharper blade underneath. Cheaper blades require sharpening more often. You do this as often as necessary, but it's something like 1 month to 2 years before this is required (assuming you're honing consistently). HONING is fixing the little nicks and dents in the blade that accrue over time. To this end, you'll need a honing rod. Chefs tend to hone before every service, but you can do it as often as you'd like.
You can find Honing Rods on Amazon.ca. Just type in honing rod or honing steel. You don't need an expensive one. You can typically find them for $12-15.
•• Bottom Line ••
This is a good, multi-purpose sharpener. For $15 bucks, it doesn't get much better. Keep in mind, tools like this will be good for 5-10 sharpens, which could last you years. If you want to sharpen more high end knives, consider a stone and honing steel.
Happy slicing :)

Vor allem aber, weil ich mit einem Wetzstab nicht zurecht komme, mir ein Ölstein zu aufwändig und dieses Schärfgerät toleranter gegenüber dem korrekten Winkel ist. Man sollte allerdings schon darauf achten, dass man es nicht schräg zur Klinge ansetzt, da man sonst einseitig Material abhobelt.
Je nach Druck bei der Anwendung und Härte der zu schärfenden Klinge wird mehr oder weniger Material abgetragen. Sehr sauber und glatt ist der Schliff nicht. Es entstehen schon sichtbare Riefen. In einem Forum für Jäger habe ich aber den Tipp gelesen, dass man mit einem Tropfen Spülmittel als Gleitmittel einen abschließenden, glättenden Schliff erzielen kann. Habe ich selbst aber noch nicht ausprobiert.
Ich benutze ihn für mein kleines "Allzweck-Küchenmesser"; benutzte ihn aber auch schon für eine Axt und sogar eine Sense. Alles schärft er gut und vergleichsweise dauerhaft, was sicher auch an dem "robusten", also eher groben Schliff liegt.
Die gehärteten Schärfklingen sind stabil in dem Kunststoffgriff verankert. Auch nach groben Einsätzen an dicken Klingen mit Scharten (Axt, Sense) haben sie sich nicht gelockert.
Sie verlieren nach einiger Zeit natürlich schon an Schärfe. Das hängt sicherlich auch davon ab, wie oft man ihn verwendet und in welchem Zustand die Messer o.ä. sind, welche man schärfen möchte. Ich empfinde ihre Standzeit aber als positiv. Verlieren sie an Schärfvermögen, muss man eben mehr drücken oder man schraubt den Griff auf und dreht sie um. Habe ich aber noch nicht gemacht.
Der Kunststoffgriff ist sehr stabil. Die Schrauben lockern sich nicht und auch nach einem Sturz entsteht kein Riss im Material.
Es ist zweifellos kein "High-End-Schärfer" und mit einem Ölstein erzielt man sicherlich glattere sowie noch schärfere Ergebnisse. Wenn man aber nach einem unkomplizierten, spontan anzuwendenden, mobilen und robusten Schärfgerät sucht, dann dürfte man damit zufrieden sein.

To my surprise this is the easiest and effective knife sharpener I have ever used. The first knife had a very dull edge so I had to draw the AccuSharp over the blade about 25 times. After this I could easily slice paper (as a trial) and it cut meat like a chef! Now every time I use the knife I give it 2 passes with the AccuSharp to maintain a perfect edge. OK...I know under a microscope it's not going to be perfect because the methos of sharpening is 'shearing action' which is not as good as micro fine abrasive wheels/belts/stones.....but does it matter....it would be difficult to tell the difference in use. Excellent product. Also, you can get double life out of it by swapping the blades round.
