Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use it properly?
Start at the coarse diamond or tungsten stage only if the edge is badly worn, then move to the ceramic slot to finish. Two or three light pulls do more than a dozen heavy ones.
What can I sharpen with it?
Straight edged kitchen knives across all three blade stages, plus scissors in the fourth slot. It is not suitable for serrated blades, and ceramic knives are best left to a specialist.
Will it slip while I am using it?
The wide base and soft grip handle keep it steady on a worktop, so you can hold it with one hand and draw the blade through with the other.
What is it made of?
The body is stainless steel with a soft grip handle, built to take repeated use rather than to be replaced every season.
What colours are available?
Plain black if you want it to disappear in a drawer, or red, cyan and yellow green if you would rather spot it at a glance.
