Got my precision elite kit today and sharpened two of my everyday medium sized folders. It did a great job and the knives are really sharp. I used to have to spend a lot more time and great care of sing multiple whetstones to great results this good. It is easy to get great results. My only complaint is that most of my of my favorite slip joint pocket knives can not be sharpened with this system, I would like to see Work Sharp come out with a smaller clamp that would allow the system to be used with the smaller knives such as a case medium stockman, small pen knives etc. This would be a great accessory for this system to have a smaller clamp that allowed sharpening small pen type knives at 15 deg.

Just about the elite precision adjust knife sharpener had a custom knife well over $1,000 that did not have an edge on it and now I can shave my beard took me about 20 minutes to achieve this edge and this knife had no edge this is the best knife sharpener on the market for the money you cannot beat it so if you're looking for a sharp knife you can't go wrong with the precision adjust knife sharpener from work Sharp

I was looking for something better than the 2 pieces of tungsten and ceramic rod sharpener for my Kershaw edc knife. The salesman noticed I was carrying some stones for free hand use. I guess he sensed I was not an expert and asked me if I wanted a sure fire way to get a sharp knife for just a little more money. He explained how to use the Work Sharp Precision Adjust sharpener and I decided to give it a shot. I got home and was impressed immediately by how well packaged it was. Then because I'm kind of a geek I read the instructions. Decided what angle I wanted to set it at and a few minutes later had my knife shaving the hair off of my arm. I want to get the Elite upgrade when I see it on sale or have plenty of extra cash. Will review it separately. Thanks for your time. Brett

When will the Upgrade kits be available and any chance a larger clamp to hold larger knives with thicker spines .

This is the second sharpener Ive ever purchased. My first one was a Lansky and I love it. That is until I got my hands on this Worksharp Precision Adjust. I work in Property Development and Property Management (construction and maintenance), we hold a high regards for safety. This sharpener allowed me to get my knives, which are part of my tool kit, to a very sharp edge and I was able to do it quick and very safely. Im now a Worksharp Precision Adjust preacher.

From zero experience to hair whittling sharp knives in a few hours, for polish edges Ive add lapping films to my kit

Been using for about a month now on a bunch of knives. It is amazing how sharp you can get knives with this. One star off for not including a lower and higher grit stones. Changing the angle edge with the 320 just takes way too long. Work Sharp would make a killing by adding new stones for this kit!

It makes it easy and good on same angle. Easy on the hands.

This system has amazing potential for the enthusiast on a budget. With the ceramic stone, you can apply an adhesive abrasive to achieve a polished edge. If Work Sharp made an OEM upgrade with a new tri-way attachement icluding 800 grit, 1200 grit, and a leather strop; this system would be a world-ender.

Great little knife sharpener and would have given it 5 stars except for a few problems. (1) The handle on the Tri-brasive sharpening rod is too awkward to slide across the blade in a smooth action. Needs to be a little higher to hold on to. (2) The V-block clamp is a great idea but it will not hold a large knife steady no matter how tight I get it. Small knives are great but filet/kitchen knives slip and slide. (3) The angle adjustment handle is great, but when I check the angle with my clinometer the angle is 6 to 8 degrees off from the adjustment on the sharpener.

I make my own knives and would like to see some coarser grits available for setting edge profiles on freshly-made knives.

It takes the mastery of sharpening away, and you can get a reliably sharp edge with no experience. However, -1 star because the 320 grit doesn't feel or remove material like a 320 stone. It would be nice to have a 120 grit stone for quicker reprofiling and a serrated sharpener. I would be first in line to purchase that!

Wow! I just opened my new "Precision Adjust" Worksharp and in just a few minutes I feel comfortable enough using it to sharpen my San-Mai Damascus Miaybi knives with it.Its so easy to set up, its molded plastic but not cheap, it feels solid and well made and its straight forward enough that I did not need to open the instructions. Literally not even two minutes after opening the box and locking the components into place I grabbed a 3.5" pairing knife and tightened it into the clamp which has a protective rubber layer to protect knives from scratches. The magnetic pins used to lock the clamp into place are absolutely brilliant! The whole thing feels sturdy and secure... I made a couple passes then realized I needed to set the angle which, again literally took a few seconds! I started with 320grit, ten strokes on one side and flipped it over for ten on the other side... And Again! The magnetic docking clamp system is brilliant and allows for super fast transitions from one side to the other. Then did the same with the 600grit and the ceramic...The knife was sharp but needed a few strokes on a leather strop before it was shave sharp but I was able to get it there extremely fast, safely and efficiently! What I like best about this sharpener is it's the first and only sharpener I am willing to use with my two best knives which are about $250 each... These knives are also works of art and I don't want to scratch, scar, or take too much steel off the blade and this sharpener allowed me to accomplish this in record time! I found the the Field Sharpener a few years ago which allowed me to achieve levels of sharpness I had never seen before and this is just the next step up in that evolution.

I bought this and a set of belts for my Ken Onion blade grinder at a local shop. He was asked why I bought this. I had to check it out. Excellent work folks! Put a sick edge on your blade. If your reading this on the fence, and don't have a device like this. Just do it.

I'd like to see a rounded attachment for doing serrated knives! Would be huge in the sharpening world

Does a great job for the money!

Ive been using this for months now and Im falling in love with this system. I know everyone is hounding Work Sharp for more abrasives but I still manage to create edges that will whittle hair even without stropping. No joke. Anyone thinking about this should just buy it. Its worth it!

This thing is ridiculously good. I cant believe how quickly it reprofiled my dads 940-2 and put on a screaming sharp edge. Its simple to use and I was pleasantly surprised with the heft and solidity of the unit. There is only one more thing this needs. Extra rods. I want a rod with 80, 120, and a ceramic half rod for serrations and another rod with 1k, 2k and 3k stones. All those along with the original grits and it would be a game changer. As it sits, its still the best bang for the buck Ive ever used. Dont want to shell out 200 plus dollars but need a great working edge with consistent consistency? Here you go. Caution: things that come from these clamps may be extremely sharp.

Awesome sharpening system! Ive achieved excellent results with it. I own several different sharpeners, including the worksharp guided system with plate upgrade pack. Im looking forward to additional plates for the precision system as well, like maybe a leather strop option? Great product guys!

Screwadjust makes finding the edge angle very accurate. Manual placement and slow hand work makes making the edge follow the curvature of the blade contour exacting. I no longer use the belt drive for knives. Focusing on the edge and hand planing is quite relaxing and satisfying. Initially found the bar coming out annoying, but then realized it was because I was putting too much pressure on it...works better with less pressure.
