I like it, there's definitely a learning curve and eventually I will learn it. I mainly use it to sharpen my straight razors. I did notice that one side of the jaws are at an angle and they don't hold my straight razor so that the edge is straight up and down, the blade is at an angle on one side.
This is my second WE sharpener. Had one about 10 years ago and sold it and regretted selling it. The price point on this makes it worth it. So far I've sharpened about 10 knives and all cut the hair off your arm. The YouTube video instructions are awesome.
I color filled the degree markers with a crayon and wiped the excess with a towel and WD-40 and it looks great. Also the medium HF apache 2800 case is the perfect fit for the aluminum base with the sharpener.
This is my first WE system after pining for one over the years. I haven't gotten around to breaking in the stones, but I can already tell it will be quicker to sharpen with than some other systems. I will say that I think the base that came with mine might be slightly bowed, but after securing it to a table it doesn't seem to affect anything
Hi Travis,
Thank you for your feedback. We have a tolerance of 0.06' across the length of your sharpener base. Do me a favor and hold down one corner of the base and measure the distance from the table top to the sharpener base on the side that's bowed up. If that measurement is over 0.06', we'll get you a replacement under warranty. Just send us an email to support@wickededgeusa.com and we'll get you all taken care of.
Thanks,

I am used to Gen 4 sharpeners. It will take some getting used to with the lower cost products.
Hi Louis,
Thanks for sharing your feedback. The difference between the Carbon-WE40 can feel significant when compared to our flagship model. However, we're confident that when you're done sharpening your knife, you won't be able to tell if it was done on the Carbon or the Gen 4! If you need anything, feel free to reach out to us at support@wickededgeusa.com.
Thanks!

This is my first wicked edge sharpener. I have been wanting one for a couple of years but couldn’t justify the cost to myself. With the new WE40, it was a little easier. Still learning to use it, heck of a learning curve, but the videos make it easier. The o my complaint I have so far is I am missing two of the little o-rings to keep the guide rod shields in place.
Hi A.J.,
Thank you for leaving your review! We're glad to hear the instructional videos are making your sharpening journey a little easier! If you have any questions along the way, we're always happy to help out. I also wanted to apologize for missing those 2 o-rings in your initial order. I just put a warranty order together for you and we'll get them shipped out to you right away. You should see an email about that shortly.
Feel free to email us at support@wickededgeusa.com if you need anything else!
Happy sharpening,
Ryan & the Wicked Edge team
