Designed to maintain all plain edge kitchen knives. This sharpener features an advanced ceramic wheel, and a solid plastic handle with weighted non-slip base to give you the quickest and easiest way to sharpen your kitchen knives. Use regularly to hone the blade edge back into shape. The clear plastic guard will protect the replaceable ceramic wheel, which is positioned at the optimum sharpening angle for the Japanese-style 15° blade edge of the Signature range of kitchen knives.

Whilst specifically designed for use with the Signature range of kitchen knives, this hand-held knife sharpener can also be used to maintain and sharpen other plain edge kitchen knives. Please note that serrated edge blades should not be sharpened with this product.

1. Remove the clear guide, fill the recess under the ceramic wheel with water and replace guide.

2. Hold sharpener firmly on a flat surface.

3. Align your blade within the guide, slide the blade back and forth through the ceramic wheel 10 - 20
times from heel to tip (applying light pressure) until
desired sharpness has been achieved.
