But you must be careful using the 3rd, left most grinding section, will remove a lot of steel your blades. So only use it if your knives are really dull and need sharpening from a pro. Use the 2nd and 1st sections for fine sharpening only.

The presto does. My knives are sharper than ever! I just have to remember not to use the left side unless the knives have never been sharpened or not sharpened in a long time. It will take off quite a bit of the metal. But , so far, I'm impressed with it. I'm big on removing a lot of the fat from the meats I get, especially because of my high blood pressure which can lead to heart problems. Fat is a major cause of that as well. I shave off as much fat as I can.
My next thing is to sharpen a meat cleaver I got some years agot a flea market and never used because it was very dull. I plan on sharpening it and deboning a chicken to see how well it works. :)

Would love to read your review on that one... and with some pix, please. :thumbup:
Ps: maybe I need to spend more time on the process with our knifes.

Ok, I did sharped it a few times and appears to be very sharp. However, I didn't buy the chicken yet. I also want to get a piece of meat and see how thin I can slice and how easily. I would love to have a cleaver as sharp as the Japanese chefs use. :)
It's not a very large cleaver at all...it's actually quite small by most cleaver standards. I just did a little research on it and unopened box sell for around $80, at best. It's only a foot long and about 3" at it's widest point. But the handle is is made from real oak and is lacquered very well. :)
It looks just like these:

You can see how easily Helen easily slices horizontally through an onion in this video. My knife can finally do the same.
