This was purchased to do an independent review of this new unit. Along with compare to a few other sharpeners. 3 knives were sharpened with it. Meaning it is basically brand new. Includes abrasive grits: 220, 320, 400, 600, and 800 diamond, ceramic, and leather strop. While testing we found 3 improvements we felt would make a good sharpener, VER GOOD. FIRST, was a simple zip tie on the right post up/down slide fixture. This eliminated a VERY SLIGHT wobble. The SECOND, was an industrial grade High Pressure polymer ring placed around Jaw Vise frame. This eliminated a very faint wobble there. The THIRD, and most important fix were CUSTOM MACHINED SELF LUBRICATING BRASS BUSHINGS for the stone carrier. Replacing the plastic ones. WHAT A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!! LASTLY, I had a 1x6 Stone Holder made for this unit. MEANING, you can use ANY AND ALL 1X6 STONES MADE TODAY! You are not limited to the 6 stones Work Sharp offers.

Everything is neatly put back in factory box. Bushings are installed. 4 extra sets will be provided. I will provide extra industrial seals as you can not purchase these. Along with the 1x6 New Stone Holder.
FOR EVERYTHING + SHIPPING WILL BE $300 ($45 SHIPPING ALONE).

I am curious and mean no offense, but the same unit online seems to sell for $249.00. I understand that you have made some improvements, but perhaps I am missing some added value in your listing. I am interested, but curious.

Respectfully,
Jeff

Actually not charging for any of the upgrades. Just covering shipping which is estimated at $37-42 due to size of package and location. The bushings, special seals, and Stone holder are $52. So it's basically Base cost plus shipping or base cost plus upgrades free shipping. However, it's taken
