Sharpening Directions:
- Place sharpener on a flat surface. Hold the knife in your dominant hand and the sharpener in the other. Insert knife perpendicular to the sharpener into the Coarse stage.
- Using moderate pressure, pull the knife through the slot from heel to tip. Repeat this action as necessary up to 20 times depending on the starting dullness of the blade.
- Move the blade to the Fine stage. Using light pressure, pull the knife through the slot from heel to tip. Repeat this action 5 - 10 times.
- Carefully wipe your blade clean.
- Check your results. Draw your knife through a piece of scrap paper. If the blade slices the paper easily, without tearing, it is sharp.
The Coarse stage sharpens the blade. The Fine stage hones and polishes the blade for scalpel-like sharpness. With regualar maintenance, you may only need to use the Fine stage.
