Great Manual Sharpener
We have a couple of 7 inch and smaller Santoku knives. We had been using an electric Chef's Choice sharpener on them. They seemed sharp, but after using the Chef's Choice Pronto a few times, the knives are so sharp, I'm almost afraid to touch the blade. You do have to be careful to hold the blade straight up when sharpening, but besides that the sharpener is easy to use. Have only been using this for a couple weeks, so don't know about it's durability.
