When I ordered this sharpener I had been trying to use a cheap product so was surprised to discover this new one is multifunctional. The first item I sharpened was a pair of scissors which were very blunt but now cut really well.

Just NO! The drill bits bite into the plastic guide. It is easier and I get a better sharpened tip by flipping my makita belt sander on its back and using it freehand to sharpen bits than this toy. Because that is what it is. A Toy. Don't waste your money. Some of these Gianz things are good. This is not one of them

The power is sufficient and the stone is good quality. After the first week I have sharpened all my kitchen knives and all our scissors and because I was so impressed with the ease of doing those I took out to the shed where I sharpened all my chisels and fixed all my hss drill bits. I can't believe I waited so long to buy this but now I have OCD with sharpening anything and everything I can. It really takes all the guess work out of sharpening anything and I end up with a perfect job every time in no time.

The product is only suitable for very light use in a home handyman situation. However I have been able with careful work to salvage some chisels and screwdrivers I was going to throw away. Professionals should look for a bigger unit.

1st: It is too coarse for good knives! I have destroyed on old knife already (fortunately as I thought was a bit coarse I tried an old first...) 2nd: The "guides" as it is plastic after few tries already have cuts without pushing the knife hard at all... 3rd: I bought it for knives and after this If I use it again it will be only for screw driver maybe...
