Important Safeguards
Read these instructions carefully and retain them for future use. If this
product is passed to a third party, then these instructions must be included.
When using the product, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of injury including the following:
CAUTION
Risk of cuts:
Knives are very sharp. Keep knifes stored away from children.
- Always use the knife angle guide (C) for safe handling.
- Place the stone (A) more than a foot (30 cm) away from body when sharpening.
- To avoid injury, do not run the blade against the stone too quickly.
- Thestone (A) may brake. Do not drop. Prepare a water bowl.
Use
- Use the lower grit for turning a duil or worn out knife back into shape. Use the higher grit to keep a sharp knife in shape.
- Soak the desired stone (A) in a bowl of water for at least 10 minutes. Then place onto the rubber base (B) and the non-slip bamboo base (D).
- Clip the knife angle guide (C) onto your knife.
- Poise the clean knife on the stone (A) with the angle you choose to apply
- Slowly slide the knife using outward strokes, from the heel of the knife blade, running the knife on the stone (A) to its tip.
- Repeat step 5 around 5 times or until desired sharpness is reached. Flip knife to sharpen its other side.
- Wet the stone (A) with water every now and then.
- With the heel of the blade poised at the far end of the stone (A), adjust the holding position at the angle guide.
- Slowly, slide the knife from the heel to the tip of the blade. Repeat step 6 around 5 times until desired sharpness is reached.
Tips
- Sharpen knives weekly.
- Never use oil for soaking or wetting the stone.
- Use the entire surface of the stone to keep the surface even.
- Run the blade slowly against the stone to get better results and avoid injuries.
- High angled strokes (45° to 90°) give durable, blunt edges. Low angled strokes (15° – 22°) give sharp edges.
Cleaning and Maintenance
- To clean the stone, rinse with fresh water. Let the stones air dry completely.
- Never use corrosive detergents, wire brushes, abrasive scourers, metal or sharp utensils to clean the stones.
- To prevent the growth of mold inside the storage case, make sure all the accessories are 100 % dry before storage. If mold develops, thoroughly clean all parts with an anti-mold solution and 100 % dry them before storage.
Disposal
**** Dispose of the product according to local regulations. If in doubt,
consult your local authorities.
