Amazon.com Review
With its three-stage, high-speed polishing system, this Chef's Choice electric knife sharpener keeps all household blades hairsplitting sharp, honed, and polished. The machine quickly sharpens gourmet kitchen knives, butcher knives and cleavers, hunting and sporting knives--it even sharpens serrated knives. Using 100 percent diamond abrasives of differing grit, the sharpener creates two blade facets in the first two stages. The third stage strops and polishes, completing the sharpening with a micro bevel and micro-flute cutters. Together, these processes combine to create the Chef's Choice patented Trizor-Plus edge. A compact unit, the sharpener features three separate sharpening platforms with left and right slots and internal springs to guide knives securely. The weighted base and nonskid feet keep it stable when in use. The sharpener also includes a rocker power switch, durable housing, and a manually activated cleaning and dressing tool to clean the honing disks in stage 3. Measuring 9-3/4 inches by 4 inches by 4-1/4 inches, the sharpener carries a three-year warranty. --Emily Bedard From the Manufacturer  | For all fine-edge knives, and even serrated knives (as demonstrated in the image), the Chef's Choice 120 three-stage diamond hone professional sharpener lets you select the edge to match the need.

 Good Sharpener September 29, 2008
I've tried for many years, but have never been able to sharpen a knife with a stone. Decided I'd give a mechanical sharpener a shot as my kitchen and sporting knives were dull as a hammer. Ordered up the Chef's Choice 120 as I'd read some good things about it. First unit recieved had a defect, but was promptly replaced. Got the replacement and have to say I couldn't be happier. In a couple of minutes I've got a knife that will slice a tomato with only knife pressure and shave hair off my arms. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

Don't listent to Alton Brown or any other snooty foodie who says you have to have your knives professionaly shapened. This sharpener is great. It makes my knives sharper than when new, and it does not scratch them.

I have now used the Chef's Choice 120 Diamond hone 3 stage sharpener.
it works amazingly, my knives come out razor blade sharp every time.
i have sharpen every knive in my house, my brothers house, and even my
mother's in law house, a total of 37 knives, all razor blade sharp..
I was a skeptic initially but now i am a believer in the Chef's choice equipment.
the only flaw I have notice on the knife Sharpener is that if you apply to much pressure while sharpening your knives you will create a cut on the plastic casing of the knife Sharpener right behind the knife opening.
they should have placed a metal plate there to prevent cutting into the casing. other than that, this product delivers what it adverstises.
 Don't use on high end knives! May 12, 2007

I have always wanted to own an electric knife sharpener, and after literally months of research selected the Chef's Choice 120. I have expensive knives (mostly Wusthof)and have always sharpened by hand using Arkansas stone and sharpening steel in between. As we used to butcher all of our meat, we know what a truly sharp knife is, and that a truly sharp knife is a safe knife.
I thoroughly read the instructions before operating the Chef's Choice 120...and was like a kid really looking forward to good results and relative ease. Rather than practice with a high end knive, my first "practice" knife was a Sabatier Chef's knife.
After going through the entire three step process, I noted that the knife sides were becoming slightly scratched. Others had commented on this scratching in their reviews, but I had naively discounted their comments assuming incorrect sharpener usage. As I continued, the scratching became worse. I can virtually guarantee my technique was as per the instructions. My wife finally put the halt to the process, as she was in near tears with the scratches. The sharpener did sharpen OK, but not any better than a novice could do using a good stone.
Later, without my wife observing over my shoulder, I tried sharpening a real cheap knife. Same results: plenty of scratches and a somewhat mediocre edge. I packaged the entire unit, and returned it Amazon with a note of explanation. Amazon refunded my total purchase price AND return shipping. Ya gotta love Amazon!!!

I bought one for myself several years ago and have loved it. My parents also liked it so I bought one for them this year for Christmas. It broke on the first use. They have sent it back to be fixed under warranty ~ do not know yet if it will be with or without complications. Hopefully the manufacturer will fix it without any problems. . .
