TIPS AND TECHNIQUES

Use light pressure when sharpening (weight of the Abrasive Handle). Let the abrasive do the work and take your time. You'll get a
better edge and you will have more fun doing it!
First Time Sharpening: Start with the coarse abrasive to ensure you establish a consistent edge angle along the entire length of the
blade and remove any edge damage or irregularities from previous sharpenings.
Re-Sharpening: Use only the Ceramic Hone for frequent touch ups, the Fine Diamond may be required to restore the edge after
extended use.
Creating a Micro-Bevel by increasing the sharpening angle by 2-3° can make re-honing your knife even faster.
Edge Refinement Choices: For a durable "toothy" edge, use the Coarse Diamond abrasive and lightly finish with the Fine Diamond.
For a highly refined cutting edge, start with a Coarse Diamond, use light pressure as you finish each step before progressing to a
finer grit, and finish with the Leather Strop.
Stay clean when sharpening. Use a small brush or shop rag to keep the knife and sharpener clean when progressing to finer grits.
Abrasive Handle & Sharpening Rod can be stowed at any point in the process to optimize safety or ergonomics.
Keep a Sharpening Log to document what edge angles you sharpen onto your knives.
Dry Sharpening System – Do NOT Use Oil when sharpening! Small amounts of water can be applied to the abrasive when sharpening
if desired, but not required.
Do not drag the Abrasives down onto or up onto the blade face or you risk scratching the surface.
NEVER leave a knife mounted in the sharpener when not in use. Always store knives safely.
Abrasive can be replaced individually, visit WorkSharpTools.com to learn more.
