Our Hybrid Knife Sharpeners provide double the sharpening power with two stages instead of one. The electric stage sharpens; while the manual stage hones, creating a razor-sharp, "arch shaped" edge that is long lasting and durable. Our hybrid sharpeners are multipurpose. They masterfully sharpen all shapes of kitchen knives (straight edge knives, serrated knives, Asian knives), and sports knives too. With an expertly engineered ceramic surface, our products never need oils or other lubricants. Hybrids are the best of both sharpener worlds.
