Simple to use two stage (coarse and fine) electric knife sharpener which will produce the 15º angle found on Japanese style knives.

Most types of chef's knives, carving knives, filleting knives and even Chinese cleavers can be sharpened with the Knife Wizard KE198

How it works - There are two spring loaded grinding wheels (coarse and fine), which apply a controlled pressure to the blade of the knife.

The grooves in each section hold the knife at a 15º angle giving you a perfect cutting edge which is impossible when using a steel.

The left groove in each section sharpens the right hand side of the knife and the right groove, the left side.

The knives are sharpened in the coarse section and polished to a razor finish in the fine.
