I have used my sharpener on a dirt cheap kitchen knife and gotten a

It just will not hold a good edge after it leaves the factory.

I will never buy another one.


I've got a Victorinox Officier in the junk drawer that I found on the
side of a road. I never tried to sharpen it. I suppose if I ever need a
corkscrew it will be handy. I recall from my student days where somebody
would show up at a party with a bottle of wine with a cork and hilarity
would ensue. My taste ran to Silver Satin. If you didn't want to drink
the crap you could always pickle a pike.

I've got two Swiss army knives. Both given to me. Sometimes I use the
blade when sharpness is not important. The attachments sometimes come
in handy.
