After years of struggling with the Edge pro, I decided to make the investment on the WE64. The sharpener does everything that it advertises and more. From kitchen knives to fix blades to folders this sharpener has the ability to be very intuitive and also efficient. Of all the sharpening systems I’ve ever used. This one is the most consistent and easy to use. It secures to the bench, clamps the knife, does not make a huge mess, has great customer support and video help. So happy to have found wicked Edge.
Great product easy to install and works Great!!
Started with the practice blade X2s, then I sharpen a couple Made In, 4" then a 6" kitchen knives.
After those I sharpen a 6" Calphalon.
Then I sharpen my 4" Japanese Damascus, then a 8" Japanese Kenetsune.
Setting up the angle is the most challenging to me. Example the Kenetune is sharpened at 17 degree, To get the 17, had to put knife holder at 15 degrees.
To me this is a lot better then the wet stone method.
Thank you Wicked Edge.
This is my first wicked edge sharpener and I got it to ease into this type of sharpener. It immediately peaked my interest and curiosity to expand with more stones and strops which you have the ability to do. The sharpener works great the adjustment for angle is simple and vice is adequate. Having this one does make me more curious about a more professional model with additional features. Overall great product. I got one without the base and have secured with C-clamp but think the base would make it more versatile. The support from videos on youtube greatly help lower the learning curve for the sharpening system. I did take to customizing the system, adding a case and some coloring to make it easier to see in low light. overall 5 stars
