Reasonably Priced Knife Sharpener

[A Lurker]

Hi All,

 

Am in the market for a knife sharpener (electric or manual doesn't matter) in the 1000 baht range. Not looking for a Thai wet stone etc or to use local knife sharpening service. Appreciate any suggestions as the range, quality and price on Lazada seems to vary greatly.

 

Cheers.

Why are you not looking for a wet stone?

 

I have one I bought in UK and believe me I think it is better than any other knife sharpener.

I use a cabarudm  stone ,cost me  250 baht ,  from my local shop (Hin-Pet-Lap- Mead  ,in  Thai ) that was for a  good quality  one .I use it  dry  ,not wet .

With Thai/ Chinese  knives ,not the best of  quality ,I find  works  ok ,some carbon  steel knives we have  ,  like a machete   we  use for  cutting grass ,they are in fact sugar cane knives , I can get very  sharp ,so  a kitchen knife  should be no problem  .

Thanks. I'm thinking of something easy for the missus to use rather than mucking around with wet stones and so forth.

 

Just a bit suss on gadgets although I know plenty of people use them abroad.
