STEP 1: SHAPING
Start the sharpening process using the
1
coarse 320 grit diamond. Index the
Tri-Brasive™ so the 320 grit diamond
is placed onto the cutting edge.
2
Using light pressure and long strokes,
start at the heel of the blade and swipe
the abrasive back and forth while
moving along the length of the cutting
edge toward the tip. STOP on the tip of
the blade.
Continue until you feel a burr along
3
the entire length of the edge (on the
opposite side you are sharpening).
Keep an estimated stroke count
so you can evenly sharpen the
other bevel.
Once you have created a burr, press
4
the spring loaded button on the back
of the Sharpening Chassis and rotate
the Blade Clamp 180° to sharpen the
opposite side.
5 Sharpen the same number of strokes
on this side of the blade to establish
an even bevel.
6 Rotate the Blade Clamp 180° again so
the burr is now face up.
TIP: You should be able to feel a very
clear burr at this point. Do not
continue until you can feel or see
the burr.
STEP 2: SHARPENING
Rotate the Tri-Brasive™ so the Fine
1
600 Grit Diamond is now face down
onto the cutting edge.
Using the same technique in STEP 1,
2
sharpen blade for 8-10 strokes. Rotate
the Blade Clamp again to sharpen the
other side of the blade and repeat
8-10 strokes.
TIP: Light strokes and rotating the
blade clamp every other stroke as you
finish this step will remove the burr
quickly and produce the keenest edge.
