Yes, you can, if you handle it correctly, especially large knives and kitchen tools. For REAL precision, please check out Smith's PP1 Pocket Pal Multifunction SharpenerIt is pocket size and is absolutely awesome. I collect these things, and that one blew me away.The problem here is the sharpening ANGLE, and if you are not precise it will just go it's way. Another important point is HOW you finish your job, INTO or AWAY from the blade. Lots of info on YouTube. Be SHARP !

Short answer, Yes. I just took hair off my arm. Wouldn't try my face however. It depends on you. If you're good with a stone, use the sticks, and finish with a strop, yes. If you can't maintain the angle on the stone, then no. It also uses the 40 degree angle, not the 30 that gives a sharper edge. I've used it on utility, pocket and kitchen knives with Excellent results.

In my experience i'd have to say no, I've brought dull knives to a decent sharpness but not anything hair razor sharp . I'd suggest the Spyderco sharpener or something that has a higher grit to sharpen.

I was able to get it pretty razor sharp, I was able to split a piece of paper in half.

With some effort you can. Though you need to finish with a leather strop or glass see video http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ3KA9VLRt4

You probably could but it wouldn't be my first choice. Something like the DMT diamond hone would probably work better. Works very well for knives though.

Sure, but a razor knife would probably be better. Normally comes sharp with a full flat grind, but always can use some touching up.

Thats not going to work...I sorry but the blade isn't that sharp and I'm almost positive the shaver isn't strong enough to cut through dog hair...unless the dogs is really fine. They sell animal trimmers.

Yes, you can! As long as the blade is straight and not serrated. I've gone through my knives (including pocket knives) and sharpened everything.

I'm sure u can but I haven't... I use it prolly twice a week and the blades remain sharp

When purchasing a Conventional Straight razor, they should be honed and stropped in order to get a cutting edge for shaving. They arrive sharp, just not RAZOR sharp.

I do not know if blades are available. This "sharpener" is a lousy design and I would never buy it again. It has some nice features, but the blade approach to an electric sharpener is using the old grade school hand sharpener approach.

No, you can't. We use diamond honing stones for them. Then finish it with a silicon carbide sharpener.

I am sorry no. You can try sending an email to Sharp US and see if they have one.

That depends on what you mean by "razor sharp." Using this sharpener, I can pretty easily produce an edge that will shave hair off of my forearm, even starting with a very dull knife (although starting from a very dull edge requires several repetitions of the sharpening process). If you want an edge sharper than that, you might need to use a sharpener that will produce a narrower angle and/or a strop to finish the job.

You can mail it to Kai USA and they will sharped out the nicks. Check the website. No Charge for sharpening, just postage. Day to Day treatment, wash in warm water and dry immediately. Sharpen after each use - Edge is at a sharp angle (17% I believe).

Yes you can. I never have, but I know Amazon sells a sharpener for it. I think it's cheaper just to replace the blade then buy a sharpener though. So unless you plan on using it a whole lot.......

I haven't tried it but I wouldn't think you can. I buy my blade cartridges(HeadBlade ATX brand) at Rite Aid .

I think you're better off getting their scissor sharpeners. If it does for shears what it does for knives you will have great results.

this product uses old style dual edge razor blades widely available at low cost on Amazon. Absolutely a superior hair trimming device.

The only place I can think of is directly from sharp. You may try eBay but I doubt it
