Our take on the Work Sharp E2 Electric Kitchen Knife Sharpener

The Work Sharp E2 is a countertop electric sharpener that runs two abrasive discs and a 20° knife guide. You turn it on and pull the blade through the guide, alternating sides each pass, then finish on the ceramic center slot to hone the edge. A 90-second timer shuts the motor off so you don't over-sharpen. It suits home cooks who want a repeatable edge without learning angles or stones; it is faster and more foolproof than a manual pull-through, but it removes more steel and can't match a whetstone for a polished, custom edge. Owners rate it highly for ease of use and consistency.

Questions and answers

Is the Work Sharp E2 worth it over a manual sharpener?
It is worth it if you want speed and a consistent angle without practice. A manual guided system gives more control and removes less steel, but takes longer to learn.
How does it compare with the Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition?
The E2 is a simpler two-disc kitchen sharpener with a fixed 20° guide. The Ken Onion model is a belt sharpener with adjustable angles and more grit options, aimed at people who sharpen often and want more control.
Can it sharpen serrated knives or scissors?
The 20° guide is for plain-edge kitchen knives. A separate scissors guide is included; serrated edges are best handled with a rod or the ceramic slot rather than the main discs.
What is in the box?
The sharpener, a 20° knife guide and a scissors guide. The two abrasive discs are already fitted and are reversible.
How often do the discs need replacing?
It depends on use and blade condition. Each disc is reversible, so you flip it before replacing; heavy household use wears them faster than occasional sharpening.
Does the timer stop it mid-pass?
The motor stops after 90 seconds of running. You can restart it, but the limit discourages long grinding sessions that heat the blade.
