Owner rating4.6/5
4.6 average across 885 owner ratings
Popularity1.1/5
885 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other hand tools and workshop hand tools we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The KEENBEST KN221GR1 is one of the cheapest sharpening options here at $13.99, and it earns a 4.6-star average across 885 reviews. The listing reports about 100 buyers in the last month.
The catch is transparency: no specs are listed at all. There is no weight, no dimensions, no grit grade, and no piece count in the data. The rating is the only real signal to go on.
The price and 4.6-star score make it a tempting low-risk pick, but the missing specs mean you are buying partly on faith. If you want documented details, choose a listing that publishes them.
