    I bought a sharpener ($20.00) thinking I'd save some money. I sent it back because the blade didn't seem any sharper than before. I did get my money back after a lot of moaning and groaning. Will have to check for rotary blades on internet. I think someone mentioned rotary cutters were sold at HARBOR FREIGHT and that is just down the road from me. HMMM! Will let you know what I find.

    I have posted a couple times about the electric true sharpener. It works as long as you start out with the coarse stone and then finish off with the fine stone. Also, I find the cutting rotary mat makes a BIG difference. A poor quality mat with a rough surface can dull the rotary blades quite fast. Besides checking this board for posts related to the sharpener, you can check the reviews on Amazon, too.
