Product description says "For use with straight edge and serrated knives" - typo or does it really work on serrated knives?

I haven't tried it on a serrated knife yet. But it works great with standard edge

Ya know, I find that MOST knife sharpeners in general are not good for sharpening serrated knives.

It does most knives well, but not ceramic or small blades less than 2 inches long. Serrated knives are tricky but can be done, following instructions. Certain knives have a different angle, like high end Japanese knives, that you probably wouldn't want to do, either. It is great for the majority of kitchen knives and cleavers.

I have the miracle blade set and I use this on their serrated knives and it works great.

It will sharpen one side if a serrated knife which works perfectly fine however it will not sharpen in the small serrated grooves. If you follow the instructions that it provides on sharpening the serrated knives then it does a good job. It is a very nice product. I hope this heps.

I don't know, but I used it on other serrated knifes.. (like a bread knife) and also on a non serrated small paring knife. It was successful on both.

It cannot "sharpen" serrated edges in the true sense, but running the knife through the far right stropping wheel removes burrs from the serrated edge and helps a great deal. I love this sharpener.

I believe further back the blade is serrated. Unfortunately I can't double-check since I mislaid it and haven't been able to find it. Sorry.

This thing appeared to work very well for a couple of sharpenings. It worked on a serrated blade but actually cut the ends off of the serrations. The plastic cover opens in an odd way and when I tried to open it as it shows in the picture one half of the case broke off. It then became somewhat dangerous to use as it leaves the hand holding the sharpener unprotected. And then after a couple of sharpenings it appeared to have knocked the "diamond" dust off of the fingers and doesn't sharpen. I think that was because I sharpened a serrated blade.

I don't know. The packaging that it comes in gives directions only for regular knives

I'm not an expert but I wouldn't think this is the right sharpener for a serrated edge blade.

Yes, it does. I have used it to sharpen serrated and non-serrated blades and it does an equally good job with both.

No, unfortunetly. It will work on anything with a straight blade (hand pruners, pruning shears, old fashioned hand hedge trimmers, and even a knife) but it is not intended to sharpen anything with a serrated edge (example-any sort of saw with teeth)

It's really intended for the serration style found on pocket knives and some steak knives, not the fine saw teeth found on a lot of kitchen knives, but even then it's not that great. The diamond rod does work quite well on serrations though.

Can't help you. Don't use serrated knives. Can tell you the Trizor made all my other knives dangerously sharp!

Yes, it has a serrated knife slot, although I have not used it yet. If you are buying it for scissor sharpening don't- it breaks fairly quickly.

It's really meant for knives with 15 degree angle. Most regular knives are sharpened to a larger angle. I've used it on some "regular knives" with very thin blades and it seems to work.
