Mine arrived yesterday and, in 1 hour, sharpened all the kitchen knives (14), all the scissors (8 inc wife's tiny sewing scissors), two pocket knives and two pruners.
A great tool for a guy that has NEVER been able to correctly sharpen knives.
The unit comes with a full set of sharpening belts. Grinding belt, sharpening belt and a honing belt. I didn't hone any of the tools I sharpened and they are sharper than new, as is.
The wife was overwhelmed and extremely grateful. Even at 70 yrs. of age, this is a GOOD thing.:-)
This tool gets 5 of 5 stars in my book!

My wife never allows herself to get overwhelmed with my accomplishments. I think she is fearful of encouraging me.

Glad to hear you like it! I sure like mine! I have even used it for sharpening X-Acto knife blades.
