Sharpening Instruction
- The stone should be kept wet throughout the sharpening process by sprinkling with water, which acts as a lubricant on the stone.
- The knife blade should be kept at an angle of 15°-20° on the stone.
- During sharpening, wet stone powder will appear, but do not wash or wipe off this residue and continue sharpening.
- Knife blades with a double ground edge should be sharpened 50% on the front and 50% on the back. Knife blades with a single ground edge should be sharpened 90% on the front and 10% on the back.
- After sharpening, knives should be washed in hot water and dried thoroughly.
