YES! Use the Wusthof Asian-style sharpener. It does an excellent job. It has both a coarse and fine set of ceramic sharpening stones set at the proper angle for this blade. I have had this knife for quite a while and still love it.

I am not sure how wide your knife is. However, if it will fit in the sharpener I guarantee it will do the job.

Absolutely. There are two ways to sharpen knives: One way is to use a sharpening steel - that just aligns the delicate edge that gets wavy through use back into a straight edge that feels like you've removed steel. The other way to sharpen is to remove metal and forge a new edge. That will have to be done every several years or so, depending on how much you use the knives and how often you are using the steel. Not using the steel with each use will definitely ruin the edge and will require you to sharpen(with a professional sharpener!) them a lot earlier. Hope that helps.

I am using German knives in my kitchen and this sharpener works great. I am sure it will work just as good on Japanese knives, hope this helps.

NO! Don't use this for your Japanese knives! This is a sharpener for European-style knives. Japanese-style knives are sharpened at a different angle. You will need a different sharpener for them.

So long as its not a serrated edge, it should. Straight edges only for this sharpener.

No. This sharpener is designed mainly for knife blades. The foldable rod is for curved serrations in blades. For a saw there are others small flat sharpeners .

The sharpener is NOT for serrated knives. It works fine on all flat blade knives. It's not the best sharpener in the world, but good for the price.

I don't see why this sharpener wouldn't work for other knives also. It simply consists of 3 ceramic grinding wheels of different grit. Global is a company which produces knives.

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 !

Yes, I do. I originally bought this to sharpen some of the Henckel knives I have, but used it on others that were not as expensive and it worked great!

No, not unless you have a special sharpener that is made for that type of bade.

No, the manufacturer makes it clear that it is only for sharpening knives (which it does superbly).

I have used this knife sharpener to sharpen every knife I own. It worked fine on my paring knife ...should work for you too.

Absolutely not, it is a carbide sharpener, plus the blades are replaceable.
