I had been considering buying a Wicked Edge sharpening system for a long time but the cost was the one and biggest consideration. So I decided to take the plunge and go for it. And I have to say it's a great bit of kit. The advice to sharpen knives you don't care about to learn is very good. And it does take a little time to set up the system, learn what each part does and try to sharpen knives of different shapes and sizes. It is a shame that the attachment to sharpen small knives is so pricey - something that I will buy at a later date. The only thing that I haven't figured out is how to sharpen knives that don't have a sharpening choil. So I was trying to do my Spyderco Manix 2 and I am unable to sharpen the last 2mm at the transition. But I would say that if you can afford it, this system will give you great results that are repeatable. That's something that I couldn't get on a japanese whetstone. Some people might, but I couldn't.

Absolutely fantastic piece of equipment. It definitely needs some practice in handling, but meets the expectations in all regards. It is however a pity that the ceramic stones are not included. To achieve the perfect results with your high-end knives the ceramic stones are definitely worth the investment.
