The RWS Quick-Sharp Knife Sharpener is a one-stop sharpening kit, ideal for use both in the field and at home. It features both carbide and ceramic shears, allowing you to take your knife from dull to razor sharp in just minutes.

Simple, quick and very effective, the RWS Sharpener features two proven sharpening systems, meaning that even badly damaged blades can be made sharp again. The carbide set of shears can be used first for basic sharpening, while the ceramic shears are used for finishing. Its compact and ultra-light design makes it easy to pop into your rucksack or belt pouch when heading out for the day. Additionally, it can of course be used around the home for kitchen knives and other tools.

Please note that the instructions provided with your sharpener will be written in German only. Therefore, we have translated the instructions for you here. To use, position the Quick-Sharp on a flat, firm surface and pull your knife through the Carbide shears at a 90 degree angle to the sharpener, maintaining a light pressure as you go. Once the required result is achieved, turn the Quick-Sharp over and pass the blade through the ceramic shears to put a fine, finishing edge to your knife. Non-slip rubber inserts on the top and bottom panels help to keep the sharpener in place.

Maybe I was using it wrong, but the carbide side of this sharpener seems a little too brutal. Or unrefined. I don't doubt it does the job, but left a bit of a rough edge on my blade- there was a definite notch which I had to use another knife sharpener I have to remove. The ceramic side has more finesse. That said, it is very compact and, like I said, I don't doubt it will make a sharp edge, so I'd certainly keep it on me when out and about in case I needed it. Perhaps I will try and find more tips on how best to use it before I need to though.

Dear James. Thank you for your review on the RWS Quick-Sharp Knife Sharpener. The ceramic side is very coarse and needs to be used very carefully. By using lots of pressure, material will be taken quickly from the blade. At the same time if there are irregularities along the bladed edge, the sharpener will magnify the imperfection further. The sharpener is also designed to be used on knives with a small bevel only.

Useful little sharpener at a good price. Not usually keen on the carbide type scrapers which are very harsh but the ceramic rods on the other end put a nice polish on the edge. They'll also touch up a cutting edge which is getting worn without using the carbide. Some caution needed to keep thumbs out of the way as it's a small item.

I bought this sharpener for sharpening my pocket knives. If you have a scandi grind and want to maintain it don't use one of these, it will give you a micro bevel on you knife. This sharpener is far more robust than other sharpeners of this type, so I think is worth the couple of extra quid. It's quite chunky with good handles for gripping when in use. I would think it would be uncomfortable to carry in a trouser pocket, but fine in a large coat pocket or something of that sort. In use it is very effective. It brought my Opinel from dull to razor sharp in a very short time. The little key chain thing is the only down side. It's cheap. If you want to hang it off something I would replace this. Otherwise great, handy little sharpener.

I bought one for the kitchen and one for a travel kit, for knives and multi-tool blades. Easy to keep a good working edge with a fine finish.

Does what it says on the can. Blade sharpens very well albeit a little ragged to the touch. However a quick strop on the belt and you get a great edge very quickly. Fantastic when you don't have the stones or the time to get a very effective edge. Great value for money.

Excellent product. Small enough to be place in pocket and used regularly.

Well this is getting tiresome: I'm a fair man and reviewing items from Woodlore with 5 stars is becoming a habit. This was no exception. The ease of use is great. It's so simple yet effective, coupled with the very reasonable price means thumbs up from me.

Generally use DC Whetstones but bought this for a relative who needed something simpler. I've used it a few times to make sure I've got the hang of it. Solid construction. Sharpens up a knife but if you want scalpel sharp keep a strop nearby to complete.
