ELSHARP®-TURBO - electric blade - and Knife Sharpener

Customer Review

Got yesterday and made me after a resonable battery charge equal to the time sharpening my knife the device.

1. Knife -> Fillet Knife Marttiini, blade very flexible and chrome (I Use my fish caught exempt).
Since the knife was still quite sharp, I use the fine Schärfaufzatz. After repeated by dragging the blade,
now I could still find no significant sharpening effect. My conclusion: perhaps the knife is just too soft
and vibrates at very sharpened to properly be.

2. Knives -> Hunting knife by Buck, 420HC steel blade. This knife was also quite good pre-sharpened and I wanted to like
of Manufacturers (ELSHARP) recommended to maintain the blade with the fine essay "maintain" Again, I could not have the desired
Sharpening effect detect. Have as described in the instructions, pulled along the blade at the red marking line. It is only
a fine in the light of shiny, fran ziger ridge formed.

3. Knives -> Kai Shun Santoku 18cm, 32-layered Damascus steel, core of V-Gold 10 steel with a Rockwell hardness of 61 ± 1 HRC. Even this already quite sharp
Knife I have tried to raise the ELSHARP Turbo or maintain. Unfortunately, the knife was blunt after than before.
Again Blidet be described of as the 2nd knife, shiny ridge.

Now you can, of course, ask what you are doing actually the sharpness of a knife-proof?
For me personally, a knife, the knife is 3. eg sharp when cutting works in the kitchen just slightly go effortlessly from the hand.
If I can, for example, cut onions without tears my eyes. If I can cut tomatoes without having liquids from escaping or if I have a roast
can cut into thin, even slices.

In my first attempt sharpening I won a rather inferior impression of this device.
I did some searching on the manufacturer side and among other things, read as Mr. Rolf J. Eickhorn (inventor of Elsharp Turbo) on the sharpness of knives
philosofiert. As he himself writes, when and how long a knife is sharp, is an issue.

The package is a note on the case of the "correct" use of the battery is described. Along the lines of 10-15 seconds 10 seconds before sharpening.
So I personally think is very unprofessional. The bad dissolved Battery - engine design of the equipment be allocated to the usage behavior of the customers
in my opinion not the right way. The ELSHARP is häufigt, conditionally compared by the principle of rotation of the sharpening head with a razor. A razor
but I do not have every 10-15 sec. for 10 sec. stripping so I can shave. Here there is certainly still a lot of room for improvement for the ELSHARP.

Was wondering why family Eickhorn on their homepage Manufacturers establishes me an area for reviews, but there is no way to create a ???
There is a separate FAQ section - only item I can not ???
From a reputable manufacturer who is interested to provide full and satisfied customers, I expect more.

I'm going to the device further testing until I make a final decision whether meet I return it or keep.
Maybe I'm just too stupid to turn the unit einzusetzten adequate and should continue my knife with water stones
sharpen ;-)
