Everything Jessica: Priority Chef Knife Sharpener, 2 Stage Sharpening System for knives

I was given the chance to try out and review the Priority Chef Knife Sharpener, 2 Stage Sharpening System. It has been great. As soon as we got it in, Paul was pulling knives out to sharpen. Before I received the sharpener in, I was sent an email to explain how to use it. Here are the tips I was sent ahead of time.

"Couple of tips on the use of the knife sharpener

When you buy a new product we are all eager to test it out, but there are a couple of things regarding the use of the knife sharpener that we want you to be aware before it arrives!

1. Only use the coarse section for very blunt knives! This section actually removes small amounts of steel from the knife and should only be used on completely dull knives!

2. After using the coarse section, run the knife 2-4 times through he fine section until you are happy with the sharpness.

3. If your knives still have a little sharpness to them, only use the fine section between 2-4 times. This should be enough to bring those knives back to life!

4. Important!! When sharpening knives with our sharpener only pull the knives towards you when in the sharpener - DO NOT push the knives through or use 2 way motion. Just place the knife in the sharpener and pull.

5. There is no need to press the knife down with any great strength. This will removes more steel than necessary!"

It was packaged nicely.

I followed the directions I was given and it was very easy to use the sharpener. It did not require any pressure at all. I do have a knife or two that will require a little more work, but all the other ones I sharpened turned out great. This sharpener is very easy to hold and is comfortable in my hand. It is very light weight and fits right in my silverware drawer. I felt that this was very safe to use also. I received this sharpener for Free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

As an added bonus, in the box was a card with a web address to download a free ebook. The ebook has tips on how to have a healthier lifestyle and 30 recipes that you can prepare and cook in 30 minutes.

This would be great for any chef in your life for Christmas.
