Good for serated knives as well?

Absolutely! Serated knives are my favorite as they are more versatile. I honestly didn't think you could sharpen a serated edge until I gave it a try with my Perfect Edge sharpener, it worked! I would definitely recommend this sharpener for serated edges, you will be glad you did!

Mary Anne, Thank you for your inquiry. The Perfect Edge knife sharpener is very effective on serrated knives and will provide a very sharp edge.

No. It is only for knives with reasonably thin blades--like kitchen knives.

You can but I definitely wouldn't for knives that good. Read "An Edge in the Kitchen". It has an excellent section on sharpening knives; i.e. whether to send them out (and to whom) or do them yourself. And if you sharpen them yourself, what tools are available and how to use them.

I would think so. Im pretty sure I saw other websites selling this product for just that. Basically if its steel and not serated, you can use any sharpening stone for it

I use it for a motorcycle tool bag. I am sure it would work fine for transporting your knives. It is very well construed.

Not being an expert sharpener. I don't know. I have a diamond stone which I would use for a regular blade.The S miths would be great for the wide variety of serrated kitchen knives. The serrated bread knife jumps to mind. Take a stab at it.

I bought it strictly for kitchen knives, but I suppose it would be ok for your Kabar if you were GENTLE with it. Remember: this is one of those "scrape metal from the edge" sharpeners. It just has an adjustable angle. If you really want to do right by your Kabar, get a stone and a set of ceramic rods...

yes, but i suggest that if you are using it for those items, just pour it into a container large enough to have the blades of the knives completely submerged, then if there's still enough space in the container, might as well pour in the small screws as well...

It is good for choppin' and dicin'. Feels a lot sharper than my other knives. I try to avoid whackin' bones or cutting bolts and keep it clean and dry.

WD40 as relatively fine multi-purpose solution and should work well if the knife is need of lubricant. However since the knives are pre-lubricated your's should be fairly easy to open using your thumb and index finger. If your knife is has trouble opening smoothly(even after the application of lubricants) I would recommend asking for a refund.

I use it for two sizes of chefs' knives, two sizes of paring knives, a boning knife and a slicer. I also hone but do not sharpen a bread knife on it. Ken W.

Yes this stone is good for for all knives and the coarse side is used to ruff in the edge ( if knife is extremely dull) and then the fine side is to finish it by making an even finer / sharper edge

I have used it to sharpen pocket knives, kitchen knives, and knives I take out in the back country. All of various metals. It is more to help refine an already sharpened blade.

I use mine to sharpen chisels and plane irons ins the shop, but I see no reason why they wouldn't be great on knives also. I use a little water on the stone to keep it from clogging with iron filings, of course then I oil the tools well after sharpening to prevent rust.I've give mine hard daily use for 4 months and it shows no sign of ware. I have no idea how long it will last but it seems like a long time.

I suppose you could put a few bowie knives in this case, but it is made for folding knives.

I have used it with good results on my set of Global Sai knives. Follow the directions to fill with water and insert knives at proper angle.
