Reviews for Sharpening guides

This is my first attempt at sharpening. Good angles but as a newby I have worn down the shoulder of the guide, thus changing the sharpening angle, slightly. Don't feel confident that after using the guide I will be able to hold the blade at the right angle. I bought one of the angle-holding sharpening systems after this, could have saved £40 for the stone and £10 for the guide. Would still like to build one myself that is more exact and rigid.

I find this very useful for sharpening my knives.

A very simple, effective bit of kit for getting a consistent grind angle. It speeds up the task as well as adding extra safety and grip.
