Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Save your old blunt knives, make cutting easy again!

 

Whether you're slicing meat, dicing vegetables, or carving the Sunday Roast, a sharp blade makes cutting effortless. AnySharp restores a super sharp cutting edge to blunt knife blades that have dulled with use.

Works with all your knives - even serrated blades
The unique, patented AnySharp uses tungsten carbide technology to extend the life of almost any knife. AnySharp works on virtually any knife, including expensive hardened steel knives and even serrated blades (like bread knives and hunting knives), making it unlike any knife sharpener, steel or sharpening stone you've ever used.
 

Works with all your knives, even serrated blades

(Not suitable for extremely fine-toothed serrated knives).

AnySharp is safer by design

Attaches anywhere, safe to use single handed

Plastic top protects your knife

 

 

1) Patented PowerGrip - Safer for you
The AnySharp's unique safety feature is its PowerGrip suction cup base, which attaches securely to any smooth surface or worktop without the need for any tools. In fact, it will attach to any smooth surface anywhere. You can even use it on a vertical surface like a tiled wall! Once it's attached you can sharpen any knife safely single handed - keeping your free hand out of harm's way!

2) Polymer Protector - Safer for your Knives
When your whole knife has been run through, your knife edge may touch as it exits the sharpening tools. The AnySharp has a long-lasting polymer guiding top that is softer than metal, and therefore won't damage the metal edge, making it safe for your knives too.

3) Needs only light pressure. Less chance of accidents!
With a totally blunt knife, AnySharp will hone it to a perfect angle, and remove excess metal rapidly the first time you use it. Once sharp, better results are gained by using only light pressure, and only microscopic amounts of metal are shed.


No skill required. Anyone can get great results!

The perfect sharpening angle

 

The optimum angle to sharpen a good quality steel knife is 20 degrees. AnySharp is pre-set at 20 degrees to give a perfect edge every time. Getting a consistent angle with a sharpening stone is a skilled job, but AnySharp allows anyone to get professional results without any training at all.

Once you have fixed the AnySharp to a work surface, you can sharpen knives easily and safely using just one hand. All you need to do is just gently draw the blade through the tungsten carbide sharpening edges, 3 or 4 times to restore a super sharp cutting edge.

Do remember, very little pressure is needed with AnySharp and to wipe the knife before use.


Store it easily and conveniently out of the way

Easily store in a draw

 

Since it is so small and light, AnySharp can be easily tidied away in a drawer, cupboard, or tool box when not needed. AnySharp is small enough to store in your kitchen drawer. You could even PowerGrip it to your fridge or tiled kitchen wall, out of the way yet handy when you need it.

 

AnySharp
Ecological, money-saving

AnySharp is a an eco-friendly product that makes your old, blunt knives perfectly usable again and extends their useful life. For many people, AnySharp can pay for itself in just days.


10 Year Product Lifetime Warranty

10 year Lifetime warranty

 

AnySharp come with a No-Quibble performance guarantee for the operational lifetime of the product, which is about 10 years, or 10,000 operations. The lifetime warranty covers every part of the sharpener, not just the sharpening tools.

AnySharp Global is the best knife sharpener you will ever use. Guaranteed.

Directions

The handle on the top of the unit should be up. If it is down, pull it up. It is important to note that the writing on the front of the AnySharp should be facing away from you when using it. Place on the surface, and move the handle down. The suction PowerGrip will hold the AnySharp firmly in place. Just put your knife into the sharpening jaw, apply a light pressure, and pull the knife slowly towards you.
Be sure to apply only light pressure and gentle strokes as you draw your knife through your AnySharp. You are using the correct pressure if the action is smooth, and you get tiny metal filings coming off the knife. If you get no filings at all, or the motion is jerky or sticky, adjust the pressure to suit. The knife edge always faces away from you, and your hands are never near the cutting edge at any time.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Quick Results, 7 Mar 2009
    By S. Glenister (England) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: AnySharp Global World's Best Knife Sharpener (Classic) (Kitchen & Home)
    Without wanting to just repeat what everyone else has said about this product, it works and more importantly it gets quick results, it has a great little suction-cup attachment feature, and its small and neat. BUT...
    I believe this device has its place; when a knife gets so blunt that you can no longer sharpen it with a steel, you can use this gadget to bring the edge back and then hone it with a steel.
    Otherwise you will end up with a sharp edge that doesnt last very long.
    One minor problem I found with it is that it sometimes tended to make my knives one-sided (sharper on one side than the other), this is not an issue as you can correct it with a steel.
    So yes, I would recommend you get this device, but not instead of a sharpening steel, I believe you need both to achieve a perfect result.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Sharp Deal, 23 April 2009
    This review is from: AnySharp Global World's Best Knife Sharpener (Classic) (Kitchen & Home)
    Having tried many devices including a whetting stone I did not hold out a lot of hope for this one. You do need a very smooth surface to stick in on but it does exactly what it says. The blades are now razor sharp. The only one it has had a problem with so far is a de-boning knife which is very recessed at the blade hilt - it's not possible to sharpen the first inch of it. All the standard cooks knives are like new again - the Sabatiers can split hairs.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Buy One!, 2 Feb 2009
    This review is from: AnySharp Global World's Best Knife Sharpener (Classic) (Kitchen & Home)
    I bought one of these sharpeners at the Good Food Show at a 'show price' of £15.00 although it had a different brand name it was identical.It is without doubt the best and easiest sharpener I have used, so much so that my friends wanted to have equally sharp knives and scissors. I was delighted to find these for sale at a much cheaper price on Amazon!AnySharp Global The World's Best Knife Sharpener
