I just received my Work Sharp Ken Onion. I set it at 17.5 degrees and sharpened my Wusthof 5-inch Santoku Knife. It is one of my wife's favorite little knives. I say anything for my wife to keep her from using a paring knife when she has small vegies to cut. It came with a bamboo long grain Wusthof cutting board that works fine. My understanding is as long as you don't use end grain bamboo cutting boards you will be OK. To me this knife is too small and light. I don't really like it. I prefer a Henckels 6-inch utility 4- or 5-star knife as I have both. I have a 6-inch Henckels chef's knife and that is not the same as the utility knife. I am not too crazy about the 6-inch Henckel chef's knife as it is too thick. I would rather jump to my 8-inch Wushof chef's knife if I need a small chef knife.
The Wusthof sharpening is a success and I am happy right now. I am sure as I use it more, I will learn more.
