Does any one have experience whith this sharpner. It seems to be the same as the edge pro, but 1/4 the price?

This is the first I have seen this one....

I find it easy just to touch up my blades with a sharpening steel after every other use.

But the kit you listed, it might be worth a $30.00 investment to check it out.

I've thought about buying a guided sharpener, but I've sharpened by hand for so long I've got the angles figured out.
IamMadMan is right, a steel is a good thing to keep around, just to straiten the edge.

I did purchase a 1x30 in leather belt for my sander, and yes, it will strop a surgical edge on any knife.

For the price, maybe, but pretty sure the quality will be nowhere near as good as the EP. Have to love the grammar in the ad
" This blade-sharpening tool makes your knives razor even sharpener than the original out of store condition":twisted:

My first impression is cheap offshore crap. Why is there a USA banner on the pic?
