Re: [Histonet] Used knife sharpeners
Caroline, You can buy a new or refurbished HI-76 knife sharpener thru Hacker Instruments and it will come with a warranty. If you find one on Ebay, you can get the replacement honing and stropping wheels from Hacker. ( I know, it's quite the name for a company that sells knife sharpeners). The HI-76 comes with an instructional video. It's the one thing that is usually missing when you acquire used equipment. The guy you need to talk to at Hacker is Jim Mullen 800-442-2537. Good luck with your search.

Re: [Histonet] Used knife sharpeners
This is the same of decision between renting a house or owning a house. If the sharpener is in good condition and you can get it cheap, I would go with owning it and getting as many knives as I can so I can have always have a newly sharpened one every time.
