I have a Work Sharp and it is excellent.Simple to use and good results. I did about thirty knives right when I got it, kitchen, hunting and some big Cold Steel kukris and machetes. It does the tips fine, you just need a little practice on a cheap knife to master the technique. Awesome!  That seals the deal for me! I think I'm going to get one.

I had one for a short time and did not care for it as I never got the tips down with it.  Something about a rounded off tip on blades.  Now for lawnmower blades I did like it.

How long do the belts last? The original belts still cut after doing all these. Replacements cost $0.57 eachhttp://micro-surface.com/index.php?...ath=272_7_228_262&products_id=91 Before, nearly useless ![[Linked Image from i44.photobucket.com]](http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Knives/Cold%20Steel/th_2011-06-16_17-12-50_139.jpg) After, hair popping convex ![[Linked Image from i44.photobucket.com]](http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Knives/Cold%20Steel/th_2011-06-16_18-31-18_240.jpg) Three machetes, two kukris and a 'hawk ![[Linked Image from i44.photobucket.com]](http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Knives/Cold%20Steel/th_2011-06-16_19-39-52_536.jpg)

Very cool  <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> What about what others are saying about it not giving a good tip?

Just got one the other day.  It is SUPER easy to use.  Correction, it is UBER-easy to use.  Is that even a friggin word?  Who cares.  For the money, this thing rocks.
