Adjustable Edge Pro Electric Knife Sharpener
Congratulations on your purchase of “the World’s Most Advanced” electric knife sharpener.
Smith’s is proud to introduce the first adjustable electric knife sharpener which features
diamond and ceramic adjustable interlocking wheels offering both coarse and fine
sharpening for both sides of the knife at the same time. The fact that this knife sharpener
allows the user to adjust the angle of grind ensures its versatility for sharpening a vast array
of knives. Both sets of wheels adjust to the appropriate finishing angle for the knife being
sharpened. This allows you to sharpen everything from thin Asian style kitchen knives to
wider tactical style knives 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 and
prolonging the life of the knife. The product also offers a manual sharpening slot designed
to sharpen 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 Adjustable Edge Pro delivers fast and precise sharpening of both sides of your knife
blade at the same time with 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 damage
or detemper 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 Adjustable Edge Pro knife sharpener will sharpen knives of alloy, carbon or
stainless steel. It is designed to sharpen any style straight edge knife blade with a flat
or hollow grind on both sides of the blade. IT WILL NOT SHARPEN CERAMIC BLADES,
CURVED BLADES, OR BLADES WITH A GRIND ON JUST ONE SIDE OF THE BLADE.
Listed on the following pages are unique features that set this sharpener apart from other
electric knife sharpeners and detailed instructions for each type of knife you are sharpening.
Please read each section thoroughly before using this sharpener.
