The new blade stabilizer is terrific. I sharpen all of our kitchen cutlery as well as my filleting knife for fishing and a wide variety of pocket and utility knives. I now use the stabilizer on any knife long enough to flex while clamped in the vice. Sharpening is quicker and way more consistent because the blade is now rigid end to end. Excellent product!
I have a bunch of sharpeners with having over 200 knives, spyderco microtech to benchmades to name a few. I have a worksharp pro and haven't touched since ive have this. I ordered all the stones and have 1. Micron diamond paste on the strop. This will sharpener fast!
The wicked Edge system has elevated my knife sharpening to an all mew level!! I should have bought this system years ago, Thank You Wicked Edge.

I’m a frugal person, and spent years looking at purchasing a knife sharpening system. I’ve been hesitant to purchase one because without spending over $500 on the system plus another couple hundred for stones, the quality just never seemed worth it. When I stumbled on the WE40 I couldn’t believe the value, and immediately purchased it. All that time waiting for the right product was worth it! I’m blown away by how simple, easy, and quick it is to get a blade wicked sharp!
The Gen 4 Pro is one of the best things that happened to me this year. It is an incredible piece of machinery! I got acquainted with Wicked Edge with a Gen 3, which I thought was wonderful. But the 4 has taken me to a level of comfort and effectiveness that I didn't really realize existed. I love the clamping mechanism. I love the smooth precision of angle selection. I love the "no-brainer" repeatability of the whole process. And, before I run out of superlatives, I wanted to give a shout out to Rowan Foxley, who was incredibly knowledgeable about the product and so helpful in getting this jewel on my workbench. You all "done good", and I Thank You! Rob Larsen
The customer service helping me pick the perfect system is second to none. I window shopped for a long time and finally committed to a purchase and the only regret I have is not doing it sooner. Learning the process is a journey in itself and I have a new hobby I am already enjoying!
Bought this to maintain my knives and perhaps a few friends. Took about 25 minutes on each of kitchen knives and now they are consistantly sharp and will just take a few minutes every week to maintain the edge. I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 because the clamp does not hold my 12 inch chef knife as well as it could. I clamped the unit to a wooden table and sat as I went through the different grits. Unfortunately, the knife began to tilt and even though I retightened the clamp and used the included pads, the knife still moved slightly. I think I will try a thin rubber gasket between the clamp and blade next to see if that helps. I'm still satisfied with the edge and hope they will develop something to hold the blade even better. Perhaps 5 stars sometime later.......Bob
I have sharpened all my benchmades and some friends knives, the sharpener is amazing once you find your angle!
Ordered the Gen 4 - awesome equipment. Here’s what sets WE apart from other companies - their response times are insane! I’m very happy with Ryan and the company as a whole. If something is wrong, they will fix it without question. Well done, WE - I’ll be a customer for life.
Wicked edge makes the best sharpening tools on the market. I’ve had my system for 4 years or more and I can honestly say I have the sharpest knives around.
What Makes It the Best?
