Hello everybody,
I have read the reviews and am interested; A quicker way to sharpen is of interest, esp. on really dull knives. I have a couple of questions:

Are the results comparable to the WEPS or Edge Pro?

Do the belts last for a reasonable amount of use (at least a few serious sharpenings)?

Can it sharpen scissors?

Good sharpening,
Dave
 
For what it is worth:

A. Close enough for practical uses. No, if you want to bragg, show off a mirror polish. Will sharpen good enough for most uses.

B. Yes, the belts will sharpen several knives before degrading beyond their initial performance. You can still use them in a degraded form for several more sharpenings in my experience.

C. It can sharpen scissors, but other more scissor specific tools are better. I wouldn't sharpen a $400 pair of hair stylists scissors with them. I have sharpened my wife's household scissors with my original WSKTS with good results.

Blessings,

Omar
