How do I sharpen my knife?

  • Soak the whetstone in water for about 5 minutes, as the stone can completely absorb moisture.
  • Choose your sharpening angle according to the different knives: 17 degrees for razor, sushi, chef and kitchen knives; 20 degrees for pocket, fruit and boning knives; 25 degrees fro country knives; 30 degrees for bayonet or country knives; 40 degrees for survival knives.
  • Use the bamboo base to hold the whetstone and the wear angle guide for the knife and prepare for sharpening.
  • Using the whetstone, sharpen from front to back according to the angle of the blade. Use n° 1000 for 10-15 minutes for coarse sharpening, then n° 5000 for 10-15 minutes for fine sharpening.
  • When you have finished sharpening the knife, wipe it with a damp cloth or rinse it with water, then rinse the sharpening stone directly with water and put it out to dry.
  • To maintain humidity and prevent the temperature from rising too high, add water or oil as required during the sharpening process.

Expectations:

  • Do not use the whetstone to sharpen serrated blades and ceramic knives.
  • Do not use only the center of the whetstone, but use the entire surface of the whetstone.
