They remove too much metal and in my experience are a decent way of messing up knives. I had a steel which I use most often just to keep a decent edge on the knives. Everyone tells me using whetstones is easy but always feels more faff than I want. So I also have a lansky knife sharpening system which is pretty fool proof. There is also the Horl system for sharpening which is more expensive but gets good reviews.
I have also taken to sending my knives off to get sharpened as it’s not that expensive if you get a few done and usually means I can keep the edge with the steel.

Has anyone got positive or negative experiences of a rolling knife sharpener? Am fed up with blunt knives and want to get something both decent but easy and a sharpening steel feels too much like a faff to me.
