OK so after a lot of research decided to go with the
Lansky 4 Rod Gourmet Crock Stick Sharpener as I found it for only $16.xx

http://www.amazon.com/Lansky-Gourmet-Crock-Stick-Sharpener/dp/B001KN3OLI/

This is a returned 'used' item on Amazon, but in "Like New" condition which is supposed to be good enough to gift someone.

It's not the sort of thing that a warranty is useful for and as I am a Prime member shipping and returns are free if need be.

The main complaint with the these ceramic sharpening rods I've seen is that they are too short, but these are longer 9" rods so that should do the trick :)

Just curious if this seems like a good deal? I know I will likely need to do a little tweaking to get the rods to fit the block, no problem.

The goal of this set is that I don't need to buy anything else for a while, other than some leather strapping that is on the way from an Indiana leather specialist.
I am not going to need to be doing any heavy refinishing, just sharpening of various blades.
 
Never tried the Sharpmaker, but the Lansky gets my blades as sharp as I need them to be. :thumbup:
 
Got it today, thankfully all in one piece. Which is good because (used @ $16.xx) it sold out on Amazon.
I noticed that this post came up on a Google search for the product on the first page, probably why it sold out!

By posting it on here, I would have shot myself in the foot...Had I needed to exchange it. HaHa :)

Just made the sticks fit nicely, a few turns of 150grit sand paper wrapped around a 1/4" drill bit and twisted around some in the tight holes, did the trick perfectly!
 
It looks like the new ones are just over $25, which gives you free shipping so that isnt bad either! :)
