Let’s face it, knife sharpening can be intimidating. Many consumers have made this basic kitchen task something they only trust to the professionals. Often women won’t even attempt to sharpen a knife on their own, leaving the sharpening for their husbands to tackle. But now, there are sharpening options available that are simple enough for anyone to use, taking the scary out of sharpening while giving cooks and cooking enthusiasts the power to sharpen their knives easily and safely at home.
Leave it to “The Edge Experts®” at Smith’s® to lead the way in innovative knife sharpening technology by perfecting the art of home sharpening with the introduction of the new innovative line of Edgeware™ branded sharpeners. 
The new Edgeware® Ceramic Edge Gourmet Electric Knife and Scissors Sharpener is designed to be user friendly and features Smith’s proprietary technology of the “Interlocking Ceramic Wheels.” The Ceramic Edge Gourmet produces a factory quality edge while removing a minimal amount of metal from the knife. This unique feature provides home cooks for the first time an electric sharpener with a mechanical slot that can be used to lightly polish or hone straight knives as well as sharpen extremely dull knives.
Available now exclusively at Williams-Sonoma at a suggested retail of $149.95, each sharpener includes an instructional DVD to help guide consumers on how to properly use this versatile sharpener to sharpen their double- beveled, highest quality, Asian and European straight –edge knives, serrated knives and scissors.
Yes that’s right; this unit can sharpen both Asian and European straight edge style knives. However, this sharpener is not designed to sharpen ceramic knives or single beveled Asian style knives.
Made from extra fine ceramics these “Interlocking Ceramic Wheels” quickly sharpen both sides of the knife at the same time providing a superior edge. When compared to other abrasives such as diamonds, these interlocking ceramic wheels produce a smoother and sharper edge while removing a minimal amount of metal, which will extend the life of the knife and reduce the risk of damaging your knife. Cooks can actually take their time and pull the knife through the electric sharpening slot at a slow, comfortable and steady pace. Simple, not scary! These “Interlocking Ceramic Wheels” are ideal for using on expensive and delicate double beveled Asian style knives.
The Ceramic Edge Gourmet also features two manual sharpening slots. One slot, marked “Carbide”, features premium carbide blades for setting the initial edge of European/American style knives to match the sharpening angles of the ceramic wheels and for resharpening severely damaged European / American straight edge knives. The second manual slot marked “Serrated” includes crossed ceramic stones perfect for sharpening most types of serrated knives.
In addition, this multi- functional sharpener contains Edgeware’s patented scissors sharpener. Located on the side of the unit, the scissors sharpener easily sharpens both right and left handed scissors using a “floating” ceramic rod that automatically adjusts to sharpen household scissors at the correct angle.
