Exactly as described
After trying several brands from local "kitchen" stores I finally found what I was looking for in this product. My entire set of Sabiteur cuttlery is now sharpened and honed to perfection and usable again.

This knife sharpener was bought as a Christmas gift. The one receiving enters B-B-Q cook-offs.
I purchased this product because it easy to handle, takes up little space and is efficient. The price was reasonable.
At 90 years of age I feel my judgment of products is good. Experience is the best teacher.

Awesome sharpener
I bought this knife sharpener to sharpen my chef's knives and my favorite paring knife. It sharpened them extremely quickly and easily. I am very please with this sharpener. It is also a great value.

Quickest, sharpest and easiest knife blade ever.
I gave up long ago on using motor-driven knife sharpeners. They break easily, and the knife fails to get as sharp as I require for my use. A sharp knife is a safe knife.
This is the first unit of this type I have used. My other sharpeners (German) are excellent, but the Chef'sChoice Pronto Manual Diamond Hone Knife Sharpener #464
has the feature of pulling and pushing the blade through the honing slots.
I plan to standardize on this device for all of my knives.

I Love it
This particular hone #464 is designed to work with Japanese Santoku knives and it works very well. I just use the hone rather than sharpener.

Good idea for future gifts
I purchased this item for my son and his wife. Since I am always in need of sharpening my knives, we gave it a test run. Wow!! It did a great job--putting a nice edge on my cutlery. Now I would like to treat myself to getting one to have in my kitchen.

Might get better with time
After reading other user comments, we thought this might be a more efficient way to keep our knives sharp. But it might take more practice. So far we've noticed scratch marks on the sides of the knives without noticeable sharpening of the cutting edge. The instructions indicate quite a bit of effort is needed to use the product, so we'll keep trying to match those instructions and get more proficient.
