2 Walnut Rolling Knife Sharpener - Kitchen Sharpener for Razor Sharp Edges Made in Germany - Easy Knife Sharpening Kit Roller with Magnetic Holder with 15 & 20 Degrees

Well designed and well made. Easy to use and produces an excellent cutting edge, which even improves after further sharpenings, when the same sharpening angle is used.

I studied several options for a few weeks then decided on the Horl 2. German efficiency at work again. The principle works fine and delivers a quality edge as per the manufacturers recommendations. After first use it’s soo easy and smooth to maintain the knives sharpness. Even my wife likes slicing vegetables instead of chopping them…

Generally great sharpening performance, but overpriced and magnet needs to be stronger - for the price should include a fine stone.

This is an amazing knife sharpener. Worth the very expensive price if it lasts many years which I am expecting it to. My old knives are now like new!

Great- easy to use sharpener

If you want the original then this works where as the copies do not work.

Perfect sharpener! It does much better job than the usual sharpeners that you suction on the table that always break after a year (just after the warranty's expired). This is not so fast but the results make up for it. Just remember! If you have a smaller knife don't despair! Just put it on a cutting board with the sharpener off the cutting board and you can sharpen it as if it was full size!

Sweet bitter sweet.... Pluses. Good quality sharpening pads compared to other rolling sharpeners. The rolling mechanics are smooth. The angle guide is straightforward and has decent magnets. Sharpens well and effortlessly (which was expected). Negatives. The price will definitely put people off buying this. I only sharpen one knife a few times week so I expect the Horl to last me a long time. If I had the multiple knives (and the money) I wouldn't bother with the horl and by a tormek t1 instead.

Mi hermana, una aficionada a la cuchillería de toda la vida, se puso mas contenta que unas pascuas cuando se lo regalé. (Yo tengo otro que los genes se comparten entre hermanos).

Excellent, j'ai même réussi à rattraper des lames abimées par d'autres aiguiseurs de qualité moyenne 👍

Easy to use - however, would have preferred the sharpening edge to be longer to better support long knives.

I got this brilliantly simple sharpening set a few weeks ago, and have used it to sharpen two Japanese knives (15-degree edge) and a bunch of western knives (20-degree edge). It took just a couple of minutes per blade (a bit longer for good carbon steel, a bit less for softer stainless steel). Sharpness was excellent (*). I amused myself by cutting slices of ripe tomato that were so transparently thin they had only one side... But seriously... excellent results from such a deceptively simple and easy-to-use tool. One of my knives had a blade wider than the diameter of the roller, but that was easily solved by putting the magnet block and blade on a counter-top in the usual orientation, but having the roller raised on a cutting board (second photo... if Amazon keeps them in the order I attached them). (* I like this product enough that I might buy the additional finer-grit end-caps to achieve supernatural sharpness. I'll never reach the levels of my brother, who has an array of sharpening tools and blocks and grits and honers and strops and... and... and is so fanatical about sharpening that he can produce an edge that will slice a hard turnip from across the room just by waving his knife threateningly. But for us ordinary people, you can put away any motorized or gimmicky sharpeners you've bought (or received as gifts) and just use the Horl 2.) DO NOT reward rip-off companies - mostly Chinese, it seems - by purchasing a knockoff. Reward the Germans; penalize the makers of cheap knock-offs. Yes, some of your money will go to Amazon, unless you live in a European country where Horl will sell and ship directly, but it's the price we pay for living in North America or other parts of the globe. Shipping and handling were prompt, and the sharpening set arrived in perfect condition. Just remember that when you pay Horl for the legitimate product, - you are paying for the original idea, the superior German engineering and development, highest-quality components and workmanship, and a superior reputation of a company that uses the founder's family name and stands by the quality of their product. When you buy a knock-off version from some anonymous company whose "name" is just some made-up jumble of letters, using sweat-shop labor (breaking the laws of China, both in the realm of intellectual property rights and in the realm of human rights and workers' rights) by paying off officials), and building with the cheapest materials that should barely hold together until you get it home... maybe. And if you and thousands of others report that the 'diamond' grit of a knock-off sharpener wore off in two weeks, or the roller mechanism got wobbly after two sharpenings, they don't care. The anonymous knock-off company will just stand up another front seller with another jumble-of-letters name, and keep on selling shoddy crap that is stealing money, stealing livelihood from the dedicated designers/makers/entrepreneurs who make and sell the real Horl 2 sharpening kit. I absolutely recommend the true Horl 2 (or the Horl Pro, just because of who makes it...) to anybody who has knives they want to to sharpen to a superior level and maintain that way with little effort and no knowledge needed. I'm going to buy some more as gifts for my other siblings, except perhaps Mr. Fanatic Sharpener brother who enjoys his current sharpening hobby. The rest of us just want really functional knives with least effort, and Horl provides that.

Great Item Very Happy 😊
