The Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition Knife and Tool Sharpener is the most versatile electric sharpener we've tested. You will get consistently sharp edges quickly and easily!

Work Sharp partnered with legendary knife maker and designer Ken Onion on their top-of-the-line knife sharpener. The Ken Onion Edition Knife and Tool Sharpener features a fully adjustable sharpening guide, variable speed motor and wide flexible abrasive belts to sharpen any size, shape or type of knife you own. Professional knife makers like Ken Onion use flexible belts to put a razor sharp edge on their blades, now you can have the same technology for your own knives.

Adjustable Sharpening Guides

Unlike some electric sharpeners, the new Ken Onion Edition features adjustable sharpening guides. You can sharpen an edge from a very low 15 degree angle all the way up to 30 degrees (in 1 degree increments). This allows you to put a super fine edge on one knife and seconds later adjust the guide to put a very durable edge on another knife. This ease of adjustment allows you to sharpen just about any knife.

Variable Speed Motor

The new variable speed motor is powerful and versatile. This variable speed allows you to increase the speed for faster sharpening or decrease it for a more precise approach. The variable speed is managed through the trigger, the more you pull the faster it goes.

Sharpens All Types of Knives

The combination of belts, adjustable guides, and variable speed motor gives this sharpener the versatility to sharpen almost any knife. Many electric sharpeners specialize in sharpening one type of knife while the Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition can sharpen them all and do so very well. Some of the toughest knives to sharpen are knives that have a re-curve or a concave edge. However, the flexible belt design allows you to sharpen these knives with ease and control. Even serrated knives have very small tight curves called gullets that can be sharpened with this sharpener. The most difficult concave curve is on a gut hook and the Ken Onion Edition has no trouble with it.

With the popularity of Japanese and similarly styled knives, there is a need to sharpen knives to a lower angle. While some sharpeners only give you a 20 degree angle, the Ken Onion Edition can quickly change all the way down to 15 degrees to match the factory edge on Japanese cutlery.

Not Just for Knives

This versatile sharpener will also tackle scissors and tools. A scissors guide will easily and quickly sharpen common household scissors to a 60° angle with no set up time. And with a quick rotation of the sharpening cassette, the Ken Onion Edition Knife and Tool Sharpener will sharpen a wide range of common shop and garden tools such as axes, shovels, pruners, and more.

Quality Construction

You'll notice the heft and quality construction of this sharpener. If you're familiar with the original Work Sharp Knife Sharpener, you'll notice that the Ken Onion Edition weighs twice as much as the original. This additional weight comes from the larger variable speed motor, larger overall size and cast metal components.
