Sharpening Slot Selection
The Edgeware Pro Angle Adjust Electric Knife sharpener offers
two stages of sharpening, Coarse and Fine. Both sharpening slots
feature interlocking wheels. The Coarse slot offers interlocking
diamond wheels that are very aggressive. For this reason Edgeware
recommends only using this slot to initially set the angles of the knife
to match the angle of the interlocking wheels or on damaged and extremely dull knives. The
Fine Ceramic interlocking wheels should be used often since the ceramic wheels remove a
minimal amount of metal and produce a razor sharp, professional quality edge every time.
Angle Adjustment
Matching the sharpening angle of the knife to its original factory angle has
never been easier. Simply turn the Angle Adjust knob located on the top
of the product to match the angle published by the manufacturer of your
knife. If you are not certain of the angle, refer back to the basic suggested
angles for the style of knife, Asian or Euro/American. Both sets of wheels
in the Coarse and Fine slot will move simultaneously ensuring precision adjustment to
achieve a razor sharp edge.
Interlocking Wheel Technology
™
Unlike other electric sharpeners that only sharpen one side of the blade at a time, Interlocking
Diamond Wheels and Interlocking Ceramic wheels sharpen both sides of your knife at the
same time with each pass through the sharpening slots. This reduces the amount of time
needed to sharpen your knife, leaves no micro-burrs on the final edge, and assures equal
sharpening of both sides of the knife edge.
Sharpening Angle Selection
You can use the interlocking wheels to sharpen and maintain both the double
beveled Asian as well as European/American knives. Most knife manufacturers
will publish specific sharpening angles to their brand and style of knife. If
either the manufacturer or the style are unknown, simply follow the printed
guide on the angle adjust knob. Asian brands of knives typically run between
11º per side up to 16º per side. European/American brands for years were
typically 20º per side. In recent years though with the increased popularity of
Asian style knives the European knife manufactures have added styles to their
lines following typical Asian knife angles. If your knife is produced by a Euro/
American manufacturer but the blades edge is thin, it’s likely to be one of these
new styles, so sharpen it closer to the Asian angle (16º per side). If you select
one of these “standard” angles, even if it is not the exact original angle, the
result will still be an incredibly sharp edge on your knife blade.
Diamond Interlocking Wheels (coarse sharpening slot)
The sharpening wheels used in your Edgeware Electric Knife Sharpener are
coated with “micron sized” monocrystalline diamonds. These diamonds are
specially selected for their unique cutting performance and are applied to the

Pro Angle Adjust Electric Knife Sharpener
Congratulations on your purchase of “the World’s Most Advanced” electric knife sharpener.
Edgeware is proud to introduce the first adjustable electric knife sharpener which features
adjustable interlocking wheels, diamond and ceramic, offering both coarse and fine
sharpening for both sides of the knife in two stages. The fact that this knife sharpener is
adjustable ensures its versatility for sharpening a vast variety of styles of knives. Both sets
of wheels adjust to the appropriate finishing angle for the knife being sharpened. This allows
you to sharpen thin Asian style knives as well as Euro /American styles at the same angles
originally produced by their manufacturer. The diamond wheels in the coarse slot sharpen
both sides of dull and damaged knives while the ceramic wheels polish and hone both
sides of the knife without removing much metal prolonging the life of the knife. This unique
combination provides a broad capability to suit multiple blade types and edge conditions.
With this one product, you can easily sharpen extremely dull blades and maintain razor sharp
edges on straight edge knives. The product also offers a manual sharpening slot designed to
sharpen dull or damaged serrated style knives.
Traditional electric knife sharpeners work in a combination of numerous steps and only
sharpen one side of the knife at a time. They can often scratch and damage the knife blade.
The Pro Angle Adjust delivers fast and precise sharpening of both sides of your knife blade
at the same time in the interlocking diamond and ceramic wheels thus reducing the amount
of time needed to sharpen your knife when compared to sharpening one side of the blade
at a time. Also unlike other electric knife sharpeners these wheels will not mar or scratch
the blade. If used properly, the interlocking wheels will not only sharpen the cutting edge to
factory quality, but will also reduce the amount of metal removed from your blade and extend
the life of your knife.
Your Pro Angle Adjust knife sharpener will sharpen knives of alloy, carbon or stainless
steel. It is designed to sharpen double- beveled European / American and Asian
style kitchen knives. IT WILL NOT SHARPEN CERAMIC OR SINGLE BEVELED KNIVES.
