Description

This professional Sharpener puts a razor-sharp edge on both straight and serrated blades, without destroying the temper. This well-engineered system uses a three-stage process in which blades are sharpened and honed on 100 percent diamond abrasive belts, then stropped to give the blade a fine, smooth edge. The three-stage heavy duty patented sharpening process allows you to select the type of ultra-sharp edge preferred for the knife's intended use. The sharpener automatically aligns blades to the correct angle. Great for sharpening kitchen knives, sporting knives, pocket knives, as well as serrated bread knives. Specially designed guides align blades to the precise angle.

It may seem like a contradiction, but sharp knives are the safest. With a clean edge, a knife is more predictable and easier to control. If you've purchased a top-of-the-line knife, maintaining the quality of the blade ensures maximum value from your investment. This Chef's Choice knife sharpener performs professional-quality sharpening on any knife, from gourmet knives to hunting knives--even serrated knives can be sharpened with this machine. For top-quality edges, there are two sharpening and honing stages, which use 100 percent diamond abrasives, and a final polishing stage. Each stage uses precision angle guides to create a unique Trizor-Plus edge for maximum sharpness and durability, while a magnetic pad collects residue so the machine is easy to clean and maintain. While a sharp knife is indeed a safe knife, it's wise to use caution with your newly sharpened knives, as they'll be sharper than you expect. --Laura Cuthbert From the Manufacturer

• Works for gourmet chef's knives, butcher knives, sporting knives, serrated knives

Chefs Choice M300 Diamond Hone Knife Sharpener White - Chefs Choice 0130000

This electric sharpener is so simple to use that knives practically sharpen themselves. It puts a professional-style edge on any kitchen or sporting knife (except serrated knives). Because magnetic guides hold a blade at the proper angles, no guesswork is involved. You simply grip your knife loosely and pull it lightly through the sharpener's slots without pressing down. Key to this knife sharpener's performance is the two different stages: the sharpening stage and the second honing stage, which polishes the blade to a razor edge. Those two stages create different bevels, putting a "shoulder" on an edge instead of sharpening with a single bevel. The shoulder strengthens the edge so it lasts longer. For each stage there is a pair of slots, and the slots use 100 percent diamond abrasives for hardness. The sharpener measures 7 inches long, 4-1/4 inches high, and 3-3/4 inches deep and carries a two-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Features

• 100 percent diamond abrasives sharpen carbon and stainless-steel knives
• First stage sharpens blade, second hones razor edge
• Magnetic guides hold blade at proper angles; no need to press down
• Double-bevel edge is sharper and lasts longer than factory or professional edges
• 1-year warranty against defects

Description

The R H Forschner by Victorinox Chef's Knife features an 10-inch blade that is 2.25-inches wide at the handle. High carbon, stainless steel blade is hand finished at Victorinox in Switzerland by skilled craftsmen. A special tempering process is used to produce an edge that can be resharpened over and over again, so the knife can keep its original sharpness throughout the entire life of the blade.

Description

In the kitchen there are some tools that you use everyday. The Wusthof Gourmet 3 piece Essentials set combines these three tools in one set. The 8 Cooks knife is your work-horse knife that is used to chop and slice and the 3.5 inch parer does all the smaller jobs of peeling and paring. The Come Apart kitchen Shear is durable and can cut everything from string to cardboard it comes apart for easy cleaning. Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives. This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility. Located in "The Cutlery Capital of the World", Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned.

Features

• 8-inch chef's knife, 3-1/2-inch paring knife, and come-apart kitchen shears
• High-carbon German stainless steel throughout the whole length of the knives
• Compound tapered blade laser-tested for sharpness and the correct cutting angle
• Riveted, ergonomic handles ensure a secure, comfortable grip

Reclaim your blades when cutting gets tough. This exclusive device sharpens your knives in two steps for incredibly sharp edges that last longer than ever before. First run a blade through the conical 100% diamond-coated sharpening disks. Then switch over to the revolutionary stropping/polishing disk to finish the process. Magnetic guides facilitate precise angular control, eliminating guesswork for perfect results. Works on straight edge and serrated knives. Two-year limited home use warranty.

When your favorite knives start squishing ripe tomatoes instead of slicing them, it's time to sharpen your blades. This knife sharpener is remarkably easy to use on both straight-edge and serrated knives. Simply plug it in, turn it on, and feed knife blades through the stages. The first sharpening stage uses 100 percent diamond abrasive disks to hone the knife's edge while the second stage incorporates polymer disks to polish and strop the edge to hairsplitting sharpness. Straight-edge knives should go through both stages, while serrated blades should only be used in the polishing stage. The internal elastomeric spring guides hold knife blades at just the right angle to the sharpening surfaces, making sharpening easy. The instructions are easy to follow, and maintenance is limited to removing the metal dust shavings from the clean-out tray once a year or so; no lubrication is necessary for the motor, bearings, or sharpening surfaces. Guaranteed not to detemper, the sharpener has a two-year warranty for home use. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

Features

• Unique patented stropping and polishing stage
• Two-stage sharpening for durable, longer-lasting edges
• 100% diamond honing; guaranteed to never detemper
