Product Description

With its three-stage, high-speed polishing system, this Chef’s Choice electric knife sharpener keeps all household blades hairsplitting sharp, honed, and polished. The machine quickly sharpens gourmet kitchen knives, butcher knives and cleavers, hunting and sporting knives--it even sharpens serrated knives. Using 100 percent diamond abrasives of differing grit, the sharpener creates two blade facets in the first two stages. The third stage strops and polishes, completing the sharpening with a micro bevel and micro-flute cutters. Together, these processes combine to create the Chef’s Choice patented Trizor-Plus edge.

A compact unit, the sharpener features three separate sharpening platforms with left and right slots and internal springs to guide knives securely. The weighted base and nonskid feet keep it stable when in use. The sharpener also includes a rocker power switch, durable housing, and a manually activated cleaning and dressing tool to clean the honing disks in stage 3. Measuring 9-3/4 inches by 4 inches by 4-1/4 inches, the sharpener carries a three-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

The Three Stages

Stage 1
Use for excessively dull or damaged knives or for maximum edge "bite." Diamond abrasives create first facet.

Stage 2
Use for routine sharpening. Finer-grit diamonds create a second bevel.

Patented material creates third micro bevel, and polished micro-flute cutters along the super-sharp edge.
