    Knife Robot

    I just saw this on Indiegogo:

    "No hands! Simply set your knife in Knife Robot, walk away and it'll be sharp within 5 minutes!" | Check out 'Knife Robot: World's First Auto Knife Sharpener' on Indiegogo.

    Looks like a boom box from the 70's. Can it play 8 tracks too?

      I would be afraid to trust my knives with it

        Actually, it looks much better than a standard electric sharpener with single grit grinding wheels although I would assume that using a steel afterwards would be better yet.

          pretty pricey for me. I've got an old Lansky system, that I love to use.

          That is pretty cool. I have a Work Sharp power sharpener that also uses belts. It does an excellent job. So , I could see how this would have great potential.

                  It looks really nice but the first thing I would do would be to emulate the video and would fail to clean up the backyard afterwards. Do you know how much trouble I would get in for that? Welcome to the pit KnifeRobot - it looks like a really good tool.

                    I like it. As an automation sorta guy, I can see this working for folks like me. I really am crappy at sharpening knives for some reason!

                      I like it, just don't know about having the room for another tool/appliance. And I can already hear the wife's objections.

                        If your wife is objecting it might be a good idea.

                      It works for me - I contributed. Too many knives, too few hours.

                        My ONLY reservation is spelled, "MEATER"! and a heated waterproof jacket that you could go swimming in, and others...

                        I did have one GREAT internet campaign I contributed too, and gawsh, it is so fantastic. I'll share later.

                        I really suck at sharpening knives. Don't know what it is. I design and build intricate space craft, space stations, brew systems, acoustic guitars... I can cook clean eat, ride, play and bring the house down on a good night... But I cant' sharpen a knife to save my life! I am a Virgo. I blame that!

                          I have never been able to sharpen a knife either! I bought some really good J A Henkel knives about a month ago and I can tell that some of them are starting to get a little dull so I just ordered a Wicked Edge sharpening system to hopefully change my dismal sharpening skills. I have tried the Work Sharp and the KME and they just don't do as good a job as I thought they would do. I want razor sharp knives but I just can't get that with the systems that I have tried so far.
