MAINTENANCE
Sharpening the Blade
The blade can be sharpened to restore a one-sided, 21° – 22° knife edge. It is important to note that the blade
must be sharpened only on the beveled side, leaving the flat side flat. We recommend that power grinding only
be done professionally, as the blade must be fluid cooled during this process.
WARNING
USE EXTREME CAUTION! Blade is very sharp.
