Instructions when sharpening a Metal Knife:
- Place the knife sharpener on a stable surface
- Inspect the condition of your blade: Start with Step 1 if the blade is extremely dull; Start with Step 2 or 3 if the blade is somewhat dull or just needs a touch-up.
- Clean the knife with warm soapy water. Ensure that you do not submerge or leave the knife in water. When clean, dry the knife thoroughly and store it in a dry place.
- Step 1: Coarse grinding for dull knives. Place the knife in the #1 slot. Pull the blade (in one direction) with slight downward pressure. Repeat 3-5 times. Do not push or pull your knife back and forth.
- Step 2: Medium grinding for knife maintenance. This is a necessary step used to eliminate the burrs on the knife and polish it. Place the knife in the #2 slot. Pull the blade (in one direction) with slight downward pressure. Repeat 3-5 times. Do not push or pull your knife back and forth. It is recommended to do this approximately once a week to maintain a sharp blade at all times.
- Step 3: Fine honing. Always finish the sharpening process with this step to make the blade smooth and bright. Place the knife in the #3 slot - the method is the same as steps 1 and 2.
Instructions when sharpening a Ceramic Knife:
- Only the #2 slot is suitable for use with ceramic knives
- Place the knife sharpener on a stable surface
- Place your knife in the #2 slot. Using slight downward pressure, run the blade from its heel to its point through the slot. Repeat 3-5 times. Do not push or pull your knife back and forth. Sharpen your knives every 3-6 months or as required
