Good Enough

I give a 5 star to this product bc it can provide an idea about the angle you're applying during sharpening a knife. It's not even close to maintain an angle. This's what this angle guide shows. I feel that with practice I can improve my skill. I don't think it can be improved since the only thing that can improve is your technique. I recommend it if you have an extra $10.

Takes Practice

I like the small size. I love the magnetic feature. Iโ€™m still practicing using it for achieving the proper angles. But itโ€™s easy to use - almost intuitive.

Great sharpening and skill building tool!

I'm fairly new to using Japanese water stones for sharpening knives. The most important skill you need to develop is to keep a consistent angle on the knife. I have tried the little pyramids that show you the correct angle, but I found it hard to maintain the angle as I moved the knife away. And I've tried the little device that is often included with water stones that you clip onto your knife blade to hold the knife at the correct angle. But I quickly realized that relying on this crutch was not helping me learn to hold the knife correctly and was probably even allowing me to develop bad habits in terms of technique.Enter the Sharpal 194H Angle Guide. This little doodad securely attached magnetically to the 7" santoku knife I was sharpening. Before starting the stroke, I could establish the correct angle. Then I could watch what happened to the level bubble as I continued the stroke. At first I went slowly to establish the muscle memory. Then I found I could take my eyes off the level and only check it occasionally. Very soon, the bubble stayed centered throughout the stroke. This happened in the first session I used it, so it was a very quick aid to developing good sharpening technique.There are a couple of shortcomings to the device. For one, it does not clip securely to a small paring knife or pocket knife. You could still use it to establish the correct angle at the beginning of a stroke and stop mid-stroke to check it again until you were confident you were maintaining the correct angle. The second limitation is that it does not have a setting below 15 degrees. The markings are at 5 degree intervals between 15 and 45 degrees. You can estimate angles between the markings. If you are sharping a knife below 14 degrees using whetstones, you are probably already an advanced sharpener. If you need a reference point for a narrower angle, you could try Wedgek angle reference guides, which go from 10 to 20 degrees.All in all, I'd say this is a great little device for keeping your angle consistent while sharpening and improving your sharpening technique. Highly recommended.

Works with a little fidgeting

Not the best solution for sharpeningA little unstable but usable with a little care

Great for straight razors and chef knives. Better than flat angle references. Good value.

I love sharpening my knives (meditative and can be done while watching youtube or podcasting), but if you're getting in to finer sharpening (like with straight razors or tactical knives), with a little research, you can learn the ideal angles to sharpen and hone your knives. This has a pretty good range from 15 - 45 degrees, and the magnetic bubble helps keep things in to perspective. Place it on the knife, and adjust as you sharpen. Eventually, it'll become muscle memory, and you'll begin to "feel" which is the right angle.It's crazy, because I've turned simple steak knives in to slicing machines (using the 20 - 14 degree angles), and it simply glides through uncooked or cooked food like butter.My only minor complaint is for smaller steak knives, it's a little too big. However, the magnet works by having half hang off the back end, so it'll still display the right angle, so it redeems itself.Overall, if you get in to sharpening knives and buy something like a 300/1200 grit diamond sharpening stone (or other stones), and you want to prepare perfectly-sharp knives to make cooking endeavors safer, then this device is a must companion for beginners, or people needing to verify alternative angles for various projects. Great value.

CURIOUS, INTERESTING

I have better, but I was curious about this one. Sharpened my knives for about 30 years on Arkansas Stones. It has been a long road of experience...failure to success, but, sometimes I do well free-handed, but I have a system that keeps me on track. I just received my SHARPAL today, 07/27/24. Given the negative reviews, I was cautious in removing the SHARPAL. It is firmly packed in a plastic frame. Once removed from the securing frame, with gentle care, I lifted the angle base using the fingernail of my thumb. It is tight so you must adjust the pressure in lifting. Here I can understand how these things can be broken. The bubble arm rises one click at a time. You can independently determine the correctness of the angle with whatever tool you might have. Mine appears to be accurate. The bubble arm goes one click at a time, but, it is somewhat tedious to do. The magnet is fine on mine. SHARPAL will take time and practice. I warn you to be gentle with this tool. Do not force any part as the plastic is not of a quality grade. Does it work? I have no idea as I have not tried to sharpen a knife with it yet. I do suggest you make sure the angles are correct. If not adjust ti the correct angle. That is all folks. Continued 1Oct24. Now I would NOT RECOMMEND.

Magnetic angle tool for sharpening

This is such a helpful tool for keeping your angle while sharpening. It takes a little getting the hang of it but after 3 or 4 swipes and you get the hang of it. I highly recommend this tool if your into precise sharpening. It's full proof. Just set the angle on the tool, pop it on your blade and get sharpening. It's that great.
