Regularly sharpening your knives is an essential step in keeping food prep safe and efficient! Whether you use an electric or manual sharpener, the steps for sharpening your knives are largely the same. Most sharpeners have two or three settings. Start by inserting your blade into the first slot of the coarse setting. Gently pull the knife toward you from heel to tip. You should hear a grinding noise and feel some resistance from the blade. • Shop Knife Sharpeners: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/2857... • Shop Knife Bags, Rolls, and Cases: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/2588... • Learn more about Choosing the Right Knife Sharpener: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/guid... • If you're using an electric sharpener you won't need to use any force, the sharpener does it all for you. As you pull the knife through the sharpener, follow its curve to sharpen the entire length of the blade. Repeat this process three times for a mildly dull blade, or six times for a severely dull blade. Pass the knife through the remaining slots one or two times to fine tune the edge. Then run the blade through the fine setting once or twice to hone the edge. Finally, clean the knife with warm, soapy water, and dry the knife with a towel to remove any steel remnants from the blade.
