It works well on my smallest paring knives, so it should work on a pocket knife too.

yes you can, just follow usual steps it goes quick, be careful it gets sharp fast.

I have never tried it but I suppose you could if the blade fit in the sharpeners

How well does it work on pocket knives with less than a 3-inch blade? With much difficulty...that's for sure. I have a Buck 1" blade pocket knife that I keep on my key chain. I free hand to sharpen this blade without using the sharpening guide. I'm not as proficient as I'd like to be using the WSKTS-KO. Never the less, omitting the guide when sharpening this particular knife suffices for me. Good luck.

It should sharpen it without any issue. I have sharpened several pocket knives, 3" and up. Also, a few 10" kitchen knives.

Yes, you can sharpen a wood chisel on the Spyderco Sharpmaker. There are detailed instructions on the DVD that comes with the Sharpmaker.

No.. they are cheap knives not meant to be sharpened. Chefs talk about using these types of knives and throwing them away and buying new ones because of their price. I think sharpening them would take off the finish.. but if you wanted to try .. use one of the 16 degree ones that you slide the knife through.

No, I'm pretty sure that you can't sharpen serrated edge knives with any regular sharpener.

Yes, they can be sharpened to your likening. But make sure you know what you are doing, you could ruin the blade.

You can sharpen them however you want. That said, to protect the integrity of the knife you should stick to a traditional japanese whetstone and honing steel. If you are not comfortable doing this yourself Shun will sharpen them for free so long as you pay for shipping. Hope that helps!

I have never attempted to sharpen scissors and I really am not familiar with the finer points of the process. This stone is a very simple tool for sharpening simple non-serrated knives. If scissors can be sharpened by simply honing one or both sides of the blades, the stone should work fine. If you need to do something more intricate, it won't do.

From what I hear there are places where you can sharpen this kind of knives. But I don't know if it would be possible to do it at home.

You can have a ceramic knife sharpened but really only by a professional with previous experience. all the home ceramic sharpers ive seen really don't work well. I would google a local knife sharpener in your area.

I don't think you can sharpen these blades. They don't come out of the housing and the blades can't be separated.

Pocket knife , yes . Hunting knife depends on how wide the edge is . This is one handy sharpener .

No. Do not sharpen. You will weaken the leading edge of the blade. The blades cut just fine right out of the box with slightly dull edges.

Manufacture claims "they never need sharpening" but they provide a sharpening rod. I would stand the rod on end with the tip on the counter. Then gently draw the knife blade down the rod at about a 20 degree angle for each side of the blade. See how that works for you. I am by no means an expert on this.

Yes it works well. I sharpened my pocket knife and a few of my cutlery knives.
