    FWIW I couldnt sharpen a knife worth a shit with any method, prior to modern systems. I have tried the lanskys and just about every other sharpener out there apart from the scary sharp.Still had poor results.

    Bought a wicked edge while I was overseas a year ago. I now easily get the sharpest knives I have handled. Simple, accurate and enjoyable. Especially when working carbon steel blades.
    I now get enough people asking for their knives to be tickled up, I could almost start a small business

    The only thing I dont like about the wicked edge, I have, is it takes a knack to get long thin blades like filleting knives to the standard I can get shorter blades.
    Dont know much about the scary sharp but I have heard they're top notch and may even be a better system when it comes to longer blades.
    My wicked edge was pricey but I got excellent results straight away. I have added plenty of strops, paste and stones to my kit over time and I would say it owes me nearly $800 Nz to replace.
