Overview
Home cooks with dull straight-edge knives get a two-slot sharpener that works with a few sliding strokes. The first slot uses tungsten carbide to reshape the edge, and the second uses ceramic to smooth it.
Quick strokes on the counter make regular touch-ups easy to fit into cooking, and the non-slip base steadies the work. It handles only straight edges, and the listing does not state the edge angle, so owners of angle-specific knives should check first.
Who it's for
Small kitchens with limited drawer space suit this sharpener, since the handle slides in for storage. Cooks who rely on serrated knives or need a set sharpening angle should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Carbide stage sharpens, ceramic stage smooths
- Non-slip base steadies it on counters
- Works for left or right hand
- Sliding handle saves drawer space
- Not for serrated blades
- Sharpening angle not listed
Performance notes
Edge results depend on drawing the blade through each slot with steady, even pressure along its full length. The tungsten carbide slot cuts a fresh edge on a dull knife, and the ceramic slot then smooths that newly sharpened edge. A steady base matters because a sharpener that slides changes the stroke and the edge.

Frequently asked questions
Does the OXO knife sharpener need to be mounted or clamped?
No. It rests on the counter on its non-slip base, and you hold the handle while drawing the knife through. There is nothing to install, and the handle slides in for storage.
Which slot do I use first on the OXO knife sharpener?
Start in the tungsten carbide slot to sharpen a dull blade, then finish in the ceramic slot to smooth the edge. With regular use it also helps maintain an edge that is already sharp.
Does the OXO knife sharpener suit knives with a specific edge angle?
The listing does not give a sharpening angle, only that it handles straight blades of any size. Check your knife maker's recommended angle before using it on a knife with a set edge angle.
