The MasterClass Edgekeeper costs £7.19 and is rated 4.6 stars from 907 ratings, with an 11.5cm blade and a sheath that sharpens the edge as it is drawn.

It takes fifth because a self-sharpening sheath answers the question the rest of these listings avoid, while the blade is short and the item length is given in inches against a metric blade.

## Questions people ask

**How does it sharpen itself?**

The sheath contains a honing mechanism at a fixed angle.

**Will it get sharper than new?**

No: honing maintains an angle rather than changing it.

**Is it a big knife?**

No, 11.5cm: a utility knife for small jobs.

**Do I still need a steel?**

Not for this knife, which is the point.

**Why is it fifth?**

Because it solves the sharpening problem by design, but the blade is short and the single knife at number eight is better.

907 at the time of collection, averaging 4.6 stars, with 74 per cent five-star and 1 per cent one-star.
