How is this supposed to be a 'Japanese Knife Sharpener' when the minimum angle is 14 degrees? Japanese knives are typified by angles < 14.

I think that typifying this knife sharpener as Japanese is technically correct, given that you can get a 14 degree edge. But you also are correct about the <14 degree edge of sharp Japanese knives. My father was a butcher and he always said that a quality stone and “paying attention to what you are doing” was the only way to get a really sharp edge. Experience probably has a lot to do with the process as welll

Can this be used on single beveled knives?

Yes, I bought it for the purpose of sharpening my Shun knives. It works really well.

Can this device easily sharpen chef's knives and scissors? Are the correct instructions included?

Yes. Set the angle as close as possible to your knives angle and go for it. Scissors use a shearing cut. This sharpener cleans up the shearing edge.

It says it includes a diamond sharpener but further down it shows which material is in each slot and diamond isn't one of them. Is there a diamond?

Diamond stones are made of man-made diamonds electroplated onto a metal plate. The diamond particles are embedded into nickel plating. One of the slots is a diamond stone, meaning the stone has tiny diamonds embedded into it, there would not be a single diamond to sharpen a knife with.
