Product Description
The 15XV 3-stage professional knife sharpener is the ideal solution for 15-degree class knives. Using 100 percent diamonds, the hardest natural substance on earth, our patented abrasives sharpen edges faster and easier. This straight-edge and serrated knife sharpener improves cutting performance by creating 3 distinct facets set at different angles to form a longer lasting, ultra-sharp edge. The first stage sharpens straight-edge knives using medium abrasives, while the second stage uses finer abrasives to hone the knife edge. In the final stage, patented stropping disks create an unparalleled polished finish. Precision angle guides ensure accurate sharpening throughout the entire blade length and eliminate any guesswork. In addition, this sharpener can easily convert a traditional 20-degree knife edge to more precise 15-degree edge. This unit is designed to work with both straight-edge and serrated knives.

Really, that is all the knives I need. I never felt the need for any expensive knives as the ones I have were great...when they were sharp.
I do have a steel I use before using the knives, but they were not near where they should have been.
I have used flat stones. Found it difficult to keep the angle of the knife consistent and I never got decent results.
Searched for a better method and came across the Spyderco system. Got that as it seemed simpler since the angle issue was taking care of. I got better results, but still, not extremely sharp. Looked at videos to see what I was doing wrong, but still could not get good results. Then I read about the Trizor XV in Cooks Illustrated and I thought, hmmm, this looks like the thing for me.
So, it arrived today and I spent no time in getting to work on my knives. Love the heft of the apparatus, the functional, yet industrial design and best of all that it did not require me to take lessons from a Nepalese monk on some forsaken mountain on the third full moon of a leap year surrounded by happy goats and a couple oxen to get my knives sharp!
Man, this thing simply just works. My knives got REALLY sharp. I was able to find the infamous burr (which I never got with the other methods, even after lighting a few candles to the knife goddess). The directions are simple, the operation is simple, the knives get sharp. What else do any of us mere mortals need? I got some grapes (no tomatoes on hand) that were a bit too soft and was able to cut veeeeeery thin slices without applying any pressure, simply by the weight of the knife.
I am sure all the other methods out there are great and do an amazing job, they just don't work for me. As much as I would like to sit in my porch, a piece of straw sticking from my mouth while my hands massage my knife along a stone telling some punk kid in my best Australian accent "that is not a knife, this is a knife!" the reality is that between band practice, basketball practice, dance, Boy Scouts and all the other crap my kids get to do, I just need something a normal human can use and get awesome results in a sort amount of time.
If that is you, you should get this thing. It really works very well. The noise is just a humming sound and not loud at all, then again my son is a drummer and I think that is fine too, so. But really, fairly quiet.
Just pull on the left, then the right side. After a few times,12 in my first knife, I was able to feel the damn burr. Then unto stage 2, same thing, then stropping stage and voila, damn sharp knife!
Like all of you normal people, I was worried about all those comments the master sharpening people out there make about how much steel this things remove. Well, let me tell you that after doing 6 knives, the amount of shavings captured by the magnet were enough to build me a small steel cottage in the country. Seriously now, there were shavings, but what can I say, it will probably take a lifetime of sharpening to make it noticeable on the knives.
So take it from this middle age family man and stop wondering if you should get this mechanical, uncomplicated wonder and just do it. You won't be disappointed.
I tried it out on some high-end German knives that I hone after almost every use. It made them sharper than I ever could using the non-motorized one. I tried the polishing end, 3rd slot on the far right, on some serrated steak knives, but it didn’t seem to make them any sharper. Of course, what I call serrated may actual be more “scalloped”, and it may not work as well on them.
A couple of things:
The knives started to cut into the plastic guides of the sharpener as I drew them out. Not sure if it’s poor technique, or just something that will happen. I need to find out more about this because I even saw some small bits of the black plastic on the counter.
It takes some practice making sure you put the knives against the guides and don’t go right down the middle. Well, it won’t let you go right down the middle, but you have to hold the side of the blade against the guide to make sure it hones correctly.
I noticed some scrape marks along the side of the knife blades after putting them thru the process. It’s possible they were already there, but I don’t think so.
I do recommend this sharpener, but I need to check my technique, and maybe reach out to the manufacturer, to see if they have anything to say about the knives cutting into the plastic guides or leaving scratch marks. If I find something out, I’ll try to remember to update this review.
