Can you recommend a knife sharpener. Being moaned at that my kitchen knives are blunt - so wondered what you'd use to get them back to top nick?

In my experience a wet stone is better than a sharpener.

I've tried a few sharpeners over the years, some of which have made a mess of blades, but a good wet stone is a winner.

I've got one with a coarse side and a fine side - so the coarse side is good to get really knackered knives into shape, before finishing with the fine side.

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.

I've just got a bog standard sharpener I got from somewhere like Wilko or ASDA I'm afraid.

Just don't be too rough when you do it as it will chip blades, especially if your knives aren't anything fancy. Bit of patience and consistency when I do it seems to work fine. I'm sorry I can't help much.

Cheers - just ordered a water stone - hopefully give me knives a bit more life :-)
