Worth the price
Ok this thing is a lot better than I expected. Within a few hours of opening it I had put a blade on 4 knives with it.It comes in a sturdy case with a total of 6 pieces: base, angle stand, blade holder and 3 stones. All come out and GO BACK IN the case with minimal fuss. It's well built for what it does, 15-30 degree angles and it works great.I sharpened 2 lockbacks, 1 flipper and a Shrade Old Timer skinner with it. The first 3 went fast and ended up with a nice sharp blade even though I didn't take them to a polished finish (could have). The Shrade was a bit more problematic due to its size and blade design. The only place to get a good purchase with the blade holder was directly in front of the handle, and even then it wasn't a solid hold. The knife wanted to twist a lot while I was working with the lower grit stones to set the initial angle. Once I got into the higher grits and was using a lighter stroke there wasn't much of a problem. It still came out pretty good but I did end up with a slightly larger blade taper on one side than the other. It's still razor sharp, but something to keep in mind if you plan on sharpening many of those types of knives it that they can slip around.5 out of 5 stars all together since it can whip out better edges than I ever could with free-hand.

Excellent and easy to use; great results!
Excellent sharpener, and clear instructions on how to use it. As someone who has struggled with using wet stones the right way, this tool really helped me out. My first knives I sharpened with this came out great - sharp with a clean edge. I appreciate the knowledge that is shared in the instructions about what angle to use for different knives and purposes. This company also provides helpful videos and demos. I highly recommend getting this knife sharpener.

I suggest you get the upgrade kit as well
I have a few knives for EDC and for my workshop, as well as the usual kitchen knife set. I’ve never been happy with the performance of my little Smith’s 2-step, coarse and fine, knife sharpener. I’ve tried using a stone and failed miserably..After field dressing a deer, this Fall, wishing all the while my knife was sharper, I decided to check out some knife sharpener reviews on YT. The Work Sharp Precision Adjust seemed excellent value at just $60, had great reviews and was simple to operate. I ordered it..The Work Sharp Precision Adjust is indeed very easy to use. The knife holder has some flexibility to it but to use this sharpener correctly, you do not apply pressure to the stone on the blade. Let the stone do the work. You just move it back and forth. The flex therefore becomes negligible..My first attempt to sharpen my fixed blade deer knife was good but disappointing in that I couldn’t slice through a sheet of paper. It was sharp but not the promised sharpness. I couldn’t establish the original angle off the cutting edge since I’d changed it with my failed, manual, diamond stone sharpenings. I essentially had to reprofile the edge. This is where I found the Work Sharp Precision Adjust was lacking. It took forever with the lowest grit of 320. Eventually, I sort of got there. Same with my next knife and similarly with my small kitchen knives. All needed some reprofiling.A day or so later, after watching yet more videos, I revisited my knives. This time, I was able to spend a little less time and managed to achieve that awesome paper slice. I think I was able to refine the new profile this time, having remembered the angles I’d used, and didn’t get frustrated like the first time. I also used a 15x loupe to see the edge detail. That’s now a permanent accessory in my sharpening kit..I concluded that 320 grit was just too fine for an effective reprofile, especially on a longer knife, or one heavily chipped..I considered returning the $60 Work Sharp Precision Adjust and buying the Work Sharp Precision Adjust Elite kit for another $60 more. The coarser 220 grit included in that kit would no doubt make reprofiling a lot quicker. Then I reckoned that it was just as cost effective, if not more so, to keep what I had and order the upgrade kit. Yes, that is $80 more. However, I keep the existing 320/600/ceramic sharpener from the original Adjust, adding another 3 sharpeners, with one set being an extra of what I already have. You can order new stones for around $7 each. So, I’m actually getting a spare set of 320, 600 and ceramic stones, including another holder, for only $20, versus over $21 for just three individual stones. Better value to spend the $140 for the Adjust and the upgrade kit than the $120 Elite..Tonight, I used my now-upgraded kit on another folding knife I keep in my truck. I’ve never sharpened that one and it was pretty blunt. I used a Sharpie pen to help establish the cutting edge profile – 25 deg. Starting at 220 grit, it didn’t take long to make the first pass. I moved through each of the stones, refining the edge each time and finished off with the strop. I already have a large strop but the Worksharp strop, keeping the exact edge angle used to sharpen, makes the final step a no-issue breeze. You won’t easily get a mirror polish finish, (that will take more time with the finer stones and ceramic) but without the loupe, the cutting edge looks shiny, clean and it’s razor sharp. That’s all I’m after!.I think that, for the money, this is one of the best sharpeners out there. It’s easy to use once you try it a couple times, and the results are awesome!I do suggest you get the upgrade kit though. Whether you buy the Adjust plus the Upgrade kit, or the Elite itself, you will need those additional stones for reprofiling with ease.

Finally I can sharpen a knife with consistency and confidence
This is an excellent, user friendly knife sharpener that is reasonably priced. I can now get a professional edge on any of my knives in about 10 minutes.You can see the base was missing one of the 4 rubber feet. I emailed support and within a few hours got a response saying replacement part was in the mail. Excellent service!The included directions are complete and precise.I would recommend 2 things. First, get a good handheld luminated magnifying glass to inspect the blade before and after sharping. Second, know your blade angle to assure you're honing at the right setting.

Game changer!
I rarely leave product reviews but had to leave one for this because of how pleased I am with it. I've previously had a Lansky sharpener. It worked but I didn't like using it so it rarely got used unless absolutely necessary. I was recommended this by a friend and I'm absolutely glad they did.This sharpener is super easy to use, intuitive, and very effective! My daily carry knife was badly in need of sharpening and this system had no issues repairing the nicks and getting it back to razor sharp in only about an hour and a half of use. Excellent consistency in keeping blade angle.If I had to pick nits, two things that could use improvement:1) Deeper jaw to grip more of the blade for even better stability2) Taller fixture to better allow rotation without having to tip it back for blades to clear the work surfaceOverall, very pleased with the purchase and worth the price paid.
