AA-2380588-1-100 SKÄRANDE Knife
The best way to keep your knife in excellent condition is to sharpen it at
regular intervals – once a week for ordinary household use. If a knife has
become very blunt as a result of long use or carelessness, or if the cutting
edge has become damaged, you may need to have the blade professionally
sharpened to restore its edge.
Good to know
The knife sharpener can be used with all knives, regardless of steel quality.
The knife sharpener has three different slots for fine, medium or coarse
sharpening. To maintain an edge that is already sharp, simply use “fine
sharpening” (slot number 3), but if the edge has become blunt and needs to be
restored, it is recommended to finalise all three steps.
How to use the knife sharpener
Open the cover by pushing the clip under the knife sharpener. Fill the
container with water. The container needs to be filled with water during all
times when the knife sharpener is in use. The water is needed to cool down the
knife blade and also makes the knife run smoothly through the slot. Start by
placing the knife in the first slot and gently pull the knife back and forth.
Bear in mind that it is important to not apply too much pressure on the knife,
as this can damage the wheels. Move the knife to the second slot and repeat
the procedure. Finally place the knife in the third slot to fine tune the
edge. Pull the knife through each slot about 15-20 times.The number of strokes
required will depend on the material and the condition of the knife. If the
knife is still not sharp enough, start over with the first slot and repeat all
three steps. Clean the sharpener by running it under cold water. When the
knife has been sharpened it needs to be cleaned before use.
