Sharpening Directions:

- 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.
- 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 regular maintenance. you may only need to use the Fine stage.
