Knife Sharpening Print

How to sharpen your knife:

Use a fine or superfine diamond stone, the edge you get will generally suit all purposes. To achieve a razorsharp edge, finish with a ceramic stone.

What to do: Try to cut a slice off the stone. Impossible of course, but you will make the right movement and will surely keep the correct angle! A circular movement along the edge will also bring a good edge. Finish with some light, polishing strokes.

Try for yourself to shape the edge which fits your wishes best by grinding and honing the edge to different thicknesses. Keep in mind that a thick edge will last better than a thin one, but doesn’t feel as sharp nor does it cut wood like a thin edge will - find out what suits you best. Always keep the knife sharp, as a proper knife will be used with respect and will do the job perfectly well, a dull one might cause injury.

Grinding service
After some years’ active use, the edge finally becomes so thick that the blade needs to be re-ground, that is, slimmed down so that you can continue to use a whetstone or steel on your knife. If you do not have access to machines or the know-how to do this, you can send the knife to us for re-grinding. We grind the knife in-house, restoring it practically to the original form and finish.
