I had been wanting a work sharp for w while and as I ordered one for a Christmas gift I had two in my cart. When guilt crept in so I compromised and and ordered 1 and than ordered this as it was cheaper and I am a novice machinists. I hade the opportunity to use work sharp and thou it works pretty well I was not impressed with quality (all plastic). But this this I am impressed with I found no real reason for improvement it’s a sturdy unit! The angle markings are not very accurate so if your picky order a digital meter however if you are intuitively it is easy enough to get close enough will make a very sharp knife! I ordered the big set with extra stones

First of all the machining quality is all good well executed design.Angle adjust for Knife edge works well and makes it precise all done right with bearings, fine thread some backlash but okay.Guide rod for stone holder fits the swivel well, swivel mount is designed to move with a spring loaded sleeve is well thought feature.Handle is also bigger and convenient to use. And with the diamond stones the grits work well, the quality of them seems good also having used them on a handful of knives and still good.So I also got an angle reader with mag mount, so i can accurately set the knife grind angle and more accurate than the bubble level on the rod end.Saw a reviews someone said the angle does not repeat also on the instructions was same warning. I think this is more caused on some blades that also have a long taper shape, I shimmed mine with 2 -3 strips of tape on the knife to take up this angle and allow knife to lay flat on the bottom of clamp while on Front clamped position when this is done when it is rotated 180deg the error i get was 0.1degree to 0.2deg an it was repeatable every time -- I checked - that is pretty darn good! . I added a picture of how I used tape to shim it - it should push the knife angle to lay flat on the the bottom clamp--also protects the knife surface. I always use tape anyway to prevent any possibility of marring. This produced repeatable results I am not sure if this is the case with everyone else as this is also a machined part can have variability and other factors in the assembly.I set the blade grind angle, put the magnetic angle reader on the knife blade and set the angle - watch for backlash.I set level of the diamond stone by putting the magnetic Level checker directly on the diamond stone - the the bubble level on the end of the rod is okay but the digital level is more accurate and if you unscrew the bubble I believe you could loose the factory setting (seems it is glued in place) On zero level reading lock the screw down for the rod swivel.I've sharpened about 5 large chef knives and some smaller ones and can easily get a mirror finish on the edge after stropping.All in all a really good product, considering all the features and all machined parts and it works maybe a threaded fine adjust for the level post that holds the rod.Otherwise a very good value to what you get, professionally packaged and box - understandable instructions with illustrations and good basic explanations of the knife angles. I would definitely recommend this product.
