Replacement Chantry Knife Sharpener Mechanism

It looks completely different to the original mechanism and feels different too when sharpening - as if it's not actually in contact with the blade. The results though are better than ever.

The previous review doesn't at all fit with my experience. The replacement steels are supplied in clips. keep in the clips and just slide out the old ones and slide in the new - following instruction sheet exactly. It looks and behaves exactly like the original. I think you only need to replace if you've had lots of use from your sharpener and it no longer does the job.

I have just fitted the new mechanism. i have had my chantry Steele for many years. I needed a very strong set of muscles to remove the old mechanisms. The new ones went on nice and smoothly though.

My knife sharpener was n longer doing the job and while looking for another, I found that I could just replace the steels. Much cheaper, and saved binning an otherwise sturdy sharpener. Undo the screws underneath, slide off the old steels (easy enough - I gripped one that was stiffer in a tea towel) and slide on the new - working again in time for Christmas!

Have used this item for years good and reliable works well every time. AAA
