Kitchen Craft Knife Sharpener

Advantages: Easy to use, very good results
Disadvantages: More expensive than a simple steel

...I bought this knife sharpener around 4 years ago, and haven't looked back since. I had tried for a number of years to perfect the flash looking swiping action with a sharpening steel (a la Gordon Ramsay in the credits to Kitchen Nightmares) but had only ended up with averagely sharp knives while lodging the steel securely into the edge of the draining board - neither the cool look I was after and nor the results I wanted for the knives.

...The Craft. A story of witchcraft and revenge. Four girls Nancy, Sarah, Bonnie and Rachelle who don,t quite fit in at their strict catholic school. The four girls come to terms with their powers and as they grow the evil released soon becomes too much for them to control and people around them will soon begin to suffer . The film surprised me at being actually very good. the acting was again superb and the plot was decent. the story moved along at at good pace and the ending was expected. Nothing new in this film but it delivered a watchable film. Worth your time if it comes on TV.
