Not worth the money!

I am not terribly happy with the sharpener! It is OK but I have had better results over the past 25 years with a Norton tripple stone set. As a butcher I need SHARP knives and this sharpener just is not delivering the quality edge I have been able to get in the past. I watched all of the available videos before I ordered the sharpening system, when it arrived I read the manual a couple of times while looking at the system and then I watched all of the videos again as I set the sharpening system up. When I put my first knife on it I had a video playing so I could listen to it as I was going through the motions. I attempted to sharpen 6 Victorinox knives that are HC stainless and one carbon knife the carbon knife stained the stone so bad it no longer looks white it is red. I DID put dish soap in the lube water to make clean ip easier but it sis not help, even soaking the stone did not help. The entire ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE DOLLAR system is sitting in a drawer right now and will likely never be used again. The money would have been better spent on a set of Norton Tri Hone Stones and holder!
