It works, but is it budgetary?
My only inconceivable with this item is "Is it better than the lower cost versions?" I did not really care.

I sharpened all the knives in my larder in a short amount of time. They all cut well. Husbands: If you do this be sure to tell your wives, I did not and I have said "I am sorry." many times. I have cultured to talk to her more.

Our church knives did not cut well. I took it to church and sharpened all the knives and told the church ladies.

They all m now, the ladies did not cut themselves, so instead of saying "sorry" I said "You are welcome" many times.
Naked and effective
Sharpening knives with the M130 is easily understood. I sharpened every knife in my house in just a few minutes and have been enjoying the results ever since. I'm sorry I did not get a knife sharpener years ago.
Jam-packed Performer
Relaxed to use and keeps knifes in great shape. I ran through the whole kitchen the first day and loved making dinner that night with a freshly honed set of knives.
Notable Purchase
As fans of the American Examination Kitchen (Cooks Country), we are pleased to report that their recommendation of this product was right on target! I got this sharpener for my peace who had sharpened our knives quite nicely for years spending hours with a honing stone and oil. However, he had matchless fun sharpening everything he could get his hands on with his new sharpener in a fraction of the time. Our knives have never been sharper and they have stayed sharp after much use. We couldn't be happier with our obtain.
M130 chef choice
Hey for anyone who is looking to get into cooking and wants to keep their knives very shrewd this is definitely the way to do it. You can keep polishing the knife on a monthly basis to keep you knives razor sharp. The unit is also very easy to use.
Essentially you use the first groove 3 or 4 times on each side and then you move to the third slot for 4 or 5 times on each side and you are done.
When you are just doing the polish to keep the knife sharp just use the third slot for a duo of times and you are done.

This is the one to buy
I purchased several models over a span of weeks at the local stores till I finally bought this one online. This is the one to buy. The 3 sharpening wheels do a giant job on even the toughest blades. I was able to change the angle on a titanium blade to the proper 20 magnitude cutting angle that the manufacturer choose to ignore. I really cuts welll now. Also I have been able to hone all of my S30v and 154cm steel tactical knives to perfect precision. Chef's Choice makes great products but the downright best is the 120 model.

Wished I had bought this the first occasion
When I got married six years ago, we got a set of Chicago Cutlery knives. Up until then, I never knew what a diversion using something other than cheap serrated steak knives could be. With time and experience, I have realized that they were on the cheaper end of knives but they worked lately fine for my cooking skills. However, they eventually lost their edge and no amount of steeling them could bring them back. I bought a twosome hand held sharpeners but none of them worked to bring them back to life. A couple years ago after reading many reviews on here, I bought a set of diamond honing blocks because that is what all the unqualifiedly "serious" cooks seem to say obtained the best results in the reviews. I'm sure they probably do work but it is very difficult to prevail the proper angle and I spend lots of time and remove lots of metal and still only end up with a knife that is slightly punctually. I needed something that was easier and most importantly, more consistent to use but had up until now, been scared of the cost of one of these electric sharpeners. After much searching and with much trepidation after reading some of the contrary reviews, I bought the Chef's Choice 120. Since many reviews stated the importance of reading the manual, I did, every word. After doing so, it became well-defined as to why it is important to do so because it walks you through sharpening a knife in very easy to follow and specific directions and it takes all of five minutes to study cover to cover. Then I took out my dullest of my cheap Chicago Cutlery knives that we never use and went through the operation. It came out razor sharp. Ten minutes later I had every knife in the house including three very dull pocket knives sharpened and couldn't credit how pleasurable they were to use again. This purchase has been one of the best I've made on here in awhile and certainly worth every penny. I just wished I had bought it first as contrasted with of wasting all that money on hand held gadgets that didn't work.
The sharpener that can't!
This was my another attempt at trusting a chef's choice knife sharpener and was my second time being completely disappointed. This sharpener does "ok" on kitchen knives. Not skilful but ok. But it claims to be able to sharpen hunting knives and other outdoor type of knives and it does not!!! It can only pat knives with a thin blade that has flat sides to it. Thicker blades or any blade that's not a full flat grind will not sit decorously in the guides. Save your self the trouble of having to return this product and buy the KnifeMaster Pro Sharpening System. Not only can you do ANY knife, but you can also whet anything that needs sharpening like chisels, lawn mower blades and so on. As far as kitchen knives go, any criticize through sharpener will give you a nice cutting knife for the kitchen for around 20 bucks. Buy yourself something nice with the one hundred dollars your save.
At hand perfect sharpener
I would status this sharpener as the best and easiest one I have have ever used. I am tight with a buck and like to get my money worth from a product. After doing a lot of investigate on this and discussing it we finally decided to order it. When it arrived I took the time to read the instructions then my spouse and I tried to see how good it would do on a knife. After a few strokes in on each side of the blade we tested the sharpness and were impressed. We gathered all the knives in the scullery and in short order had all of them sharpened.I like how I could even sharpen my pocket knife with ease and how it sharpened the whole blade. I am impresses on how it keeps the knife guided to get the same viewpoint on it every time and the knives seem to hold an edge better now. We own a working farm and have a huge garden and we method our own meat from that animals we raise so our knives get a workout. This is our best friend in the kitchen !!!
Fantastic
I've had our 120 for over a year now and couldn't be more tickled pink. I can't imagine having a sharper edge on our knives -- as it is, we warn our house guests about the sharpness if they'll be doing anything in the caboose.

Ask Chef Nancy: knife sharpening and measuring cups The Star-Ledger NJ.com


Yes! The “dig” measuring cup is solely for dry ingredients, such as flour, sugar and butter. (Any ingredient that cannot be poured is considered “dry.”) Looking-glass measuring cups are for liquids. And since both measuring tools differ in capacity, make sure you use the suitable one. Also remember that not all measuring cups (glass or scoop) are the same. You’ll find slight discrepancies between manufacturers. My hint is to find recipes that call for weight as well as volume, so you can be sure you are adding the appropriate amount of ingredients. Try using a small kitchenette scale (sold in home stores and larger supermarkets). It pays for itself, given the potential for wasting ingredients because of erroneous measuring.

Q. When I’m sautéing chicken for my lowfat version of chicken francaise, is there a calculate that it doesn’t seem to brown very well? Is there a way to get it golden-brown without adding the egg/flour crust to it? Also, I only use nonstick cooking aerosol instead of oil or butter. Is this part of the problem?

The best knife sharpener. Chef's choice or Master Grade?

I'm in the comestibles cutting business and I use Forschner granton knives. I would like to know which electric sharpener is better: the Chef's choice 130 or Become expert in Grade. If there are other better than these two please let me know. Any input is appreciated. Thank you.


Chef's choice.


I am not a fan of electrics, give me an oil stone any day, well-known maintennace with a hard arkansas stone and the occasional hone with a jewel stick is more than enough.


If you are using the Forschner Grantons, then you might hankering to check to see if you should be using an electric sharpener on them with that type of edge.

I never use an electric sharpener. I have mine professionally sharpened once a year and then keep them honed with a whetstone and a inure as needed.


Electric Knife Sharpener other suggestions?

I bought a Chef's Choice knife sharpener at a garage sales event. It was a discontinued cheaper model. It only sharpens as good as I do with a stone (in other words, poorly). Did I upright get a bad sharpener? Any other suggestions? Do not suggest a stone or one of those wand sharpeners and the food TV chefs recommend. They don't travail for me. I will not spend another cent on them. I have bad vision and apparently can't get the angle right, so I need automation of some persuasion. Please help! When I move, I won't have anybody to sharpen for me!!


the greatest knife sharpener i have ever had, and as a chef have had MANY, was a little device, that was cheap in comparison to all the rest, and was a block with a handle, and 2 small wheels viscera, you placed the knife in between the 2 wheels and dragged it through, hey presto, great, safe, and very easy to use if you have visual impairment, and it was very lousy, most cook shops will have something very similar

these are what i am talking about, the first oneshttp://www.premiercutlery.co.uk/ind_cat.php?cat=sharpeners&sub_cat=chantry&gclid=CLzI5buFkY0CFRROQwod1WXxoQ

i just looked at the cost out of these, these are expensive, you will get these way cheaper in cookware stores


Will a good electric Knife sharpener ruin good knifes?

I got a chef's choice stimulating sharpner for X-mas & I have a really expensive set of knives. Can I use the electric sharpner or do I need to sharpen the knives by indicator somehow.


I truly like the sharpener I have had for the last five or so years. It has four rods of two different hard stones arranged in two Vs.
You can get them at sporting goods stores and some ironmongery stores. It only takes a few passes over the stones to sharpen most knives. I think it probably cost me less than twenty dollars. Don't disregard to burnish or strop the blades as you sharpen them.
