The Kitchellence didn’t perform as well as the Wamery but ended up getting better scores for its supportive design.
The Wamery performed better in edge smoothness and material retention, and left the Kitchellence quite far behind in terms of speed. However, its effectiveness wasn’t consistent through our repeated testing.
The Kitchellence could bring a keener edge to the knife in our maximum sharpness test, and its scores are decent in other aspects as well. It boasts a much more solid and sturdy construction, and a nicer, more comfortable finish than the Wamery. While its performance was not outstanding, it was consistently above average.
If you want a faster sharpener with minimal material removal, the Wamery is the better choice. Otherwise, if consistency in quality is what you’re looking for, the Kitchellence offers just that.
