1. Loosen the knurled screw on the knife holder. Centre the tension plate
along the top edge of the knife blade then firmly tighten the knurled screw
to set the knife blade in position.
2. Tighten the knob to secure the knife blade tightly before starting work.
3. Set the knife holder on the tool
support and adjust the tool
support bar downward so that the
knife blade lightly touches the
grinding stone or honing wheel at
the correct angle as determined
by the angle guide.
4. Turn on the sharpener and grasp
the knife holder firmly. Place the
holder on the tool support and
slowly move the knife holder back
and forth along the tool support to grind/hone the knife blade. Steady your
hand against the tool support as you work. The process will be repeated for
the other side after resetting the knife in the holder.
GRINDING TIPS
• After setting the angle, switch on the grinder and start work.
• Press the tool blade evenly onto the stone and move the tool
sideways across the stone. Make sure that at least half the width of
the tool cutting edge comes into contact with the sharpening stone
at any time to avoid damage to the stone.
• Allow the stone to do the work. Do not apply excessive downward
pressure on the tool when grinding.
• Make sure the level of water in the tank is adequate. Never attempt
to dry grind.
HONING TIPS
• Never hone against the
direction of the honing
wheel, which would cause
the tool to cut into the
leather honing wheel
surface.
• Although you can work
“freehand” for the honing
process, you will achieve
more precise results by
