Does it work on Samurai swords? I do a lot of work with those with my friend Bill, they tend to dull fast and require frequent sharpening.

If it is anything other than a cheap katana... Do NOT use a stone on it! The blade came sharp, all it should ever require is honing with what amounts to talc and oil. The kits for sharpening a real katana can be purchased from several online stores - the good ones come directly from Japan.

I have various knives wit different steels: SR 101, 1095, 1075, 420 HC, S30V. Will this sharpener be able to sharpen all of the steels above?

This works on all my stainless and high carbon knives and machetes. The ceramic side provides a super sharp edge, once you get it close with the carbide. The only thing I do that gets it sharper is the leather barber's strop with Turtle Wax rubbing compound.

Which side is the corse and which is the fine? Thick blades or thin blades?

The coarse side is the slot marked carbide and furthest from the diamond rod and closest to lanyard holeThe fine side is the slot marked ceramic and is closet to the diamond rod.The thickness of the blade should not be a factor, however I do note that the carbide slot is only about 1/8" at itsopening.

Can i sharpen a blade with a 20 degree angle with this sharpener?

Smith's Response:The sharpening angle on the Pocket Pal Knife Sharpener is set at 22.5 degrees per side (or 45 degrees combined).
