Before
using
the
knife
sharpener, remove the twist
-
tie which is secured to the
electrical cord. Uncoil the
cord and straighten it to
remove any kinks. During
sharpening, be sure the cord
is positioned so the knife will
not come in contact with it.
At
a
professional
knife
sharpening
shop,
certain
knives (those made of high
carbon
steel)
spark
or
produce a stream of sparks
as they are drawn across the
sharpening wheel. As your
Andrew
James
knife
sharpener uses the same
type of sharpening wheels ,
you can expect to see similar
sparking when you sharpen
high carbon knives. The
sparking is normal.
You will find that most
knives can be sharpened so
they are razor sharp in
seconds with your new knife
sharpener. Some knives may
take longer to sharpen,
particularly
on
initial
sharpening. Typically, these
knives have either been
improperly
sharpened
previously or are made of
tempered steel and are
extremely hard. Please refer
to page 6 of the instruction
folder for information on
sharpening different types
of knives.
