Rada Quick Edge Knife Sharpener vs DMT Sharp Adjust Sharpener

The DMT Sharp Adjust is the better all-round sharpener: six selectable angles (14 to 24 degrees) cover hobby knives through cleavers, and a suction base locks it down for one-handed use. The Quick Edge is a tiny, fast pull-through that sharpens both sides at once and suits drawers, tackle boxes and fillet knives. Owners of the Quick Edge praise its speed and simplicity; DMT's higher rating count reflects a broader, more adjustable tool. Neither is a stone for restoring a dull or damaged edge.

  • Choose the Quick Edge if you want a pocketable, made-in-USA pull-through for quick touch-ups on straight-edge kitchen, hunting and fillet knives.
  • Choose the DMT Sharp Adjust if you sharpen a mix of blades and want the correct angle for each, with a suction base that holds the sharpener steady.

What reviewers say

Rada Quick Edge Knife Sharpener

  • 5 / 51,183 ratings

Owners rate it very highly and describe it as the easiest way to keep straight-edge knives sharp. They like the smooth, even edge and the simple pull-through motion. The main caveats are that it only handles non-serrated blades and that repeated use removes steel.

What people mention
  • Ease of usePraisedOwners say a couple of light pulls is all it takes to restore an edge.
  • Edge qualityPraisedReviewers describe the result as sharp and smooth rather than rough.
  • Blade typeCriticisedIt does not work on serrated blades, which limits which knives it can touch up.
  • BuildPraisedThe nylon base stays steady on the counter and the steel wheels feel durable.

DMT Sharp Adjust Sharpener

  • 4.5 / 51,616 ratings

Owners rate it highly and mostly praise the easy angle selection and the steady suction mount. Complaints center on the suction losing grip on textured or dirty surfaces and on the time manual sharpening takes.

What people mention
  • Angle selectionPraisedOwners like turning the dial to a labeled angle instead of guessing.
  • Suction baseMixedIt grips well on smooth, clean counters but can slip on textured or dirty surfaces.
  • Ease of usePraisedThe icon labels make it simple to match a knife to an angle.
  • Sharpening speedCriticised

Questions and answers

Which is better for kitchen knives?
The DMT, because you can set 20 degrees for most kitchen blades and lock it to the counter. The Quick Edge is faster for a quick touch-up but gives you no angle choice.
Which is better for hunting or fillet knives?
The Quick Edge. It is small enough for a tackle box or pack and sharpens both sides in a couple of pulls. The DMT stays on the counter.
Does either sharpen serrated knives?
No. The Quick Edge is for non-serrated blades only, and the DMT's pull-through slots are meant for straight edges.
Which lasts longer?
The Quick Edge carries a limited lifetime warranty and hardened steel wheels. DMT states no warranty, so long-term support favors the Quick Edge.
Is the DMT worth stepping up to?
Yes if you sharpen several kinds of blades and want the right angle for each. If you only touch up kitchen and fillet knives, the Quick Edge covers it.
Can either fix a chipped or very dull edge?
Neither is ideal. Both are pull-through sharpeners for maintaining an edge; a chipped blade needs a stone or a guided system first.
