Description
This compact 3-stage electric knife sharpener for kitchen knives sharpens straight-edge and serrated knives, and is so easy to use, anyone can put astonishingly sharp, long-lasting edges on knives in seconds. You can select extremely sharp hair-splitting edges that slide smoothly and effortlessly through delicate foods like smoked salmon and prosciutto, or alternately, edges with varying amounts of “bite” for more demanding jobs, like cutting tough fibrous foods and meats. 100% fine diamond-coated conical disks in stage 1 and stage 2 form the first and second bevels of a durable, arch-shaped edge. In stage 3, a revolutionary flexible stropping disk creates an ultra-sharp polished third bevel and cutting tip while polishing. The first 2 bevels form sharp cutting flutes that enhance the cutting action on both sides of the edge. Built-in high-precision elastomeric angle guides eliminate guesswork and ensure hair-splitting sharpness time after time. This compact unit measures approximately 10 by 4 by 4 inches. Resilient elastomer feet hold the unit securely to the work surface. This model requires no sharpening oils or liquids. It may seem like a contradiction, but sharp knives are the safest. With a clean edge, a knife is more predictable and easier to control. If you've purchased a top-of-the-line knife, maintaining the quality of the blade ensures maximum value from your investment. This Chef's Choice knife sharpener performs professional-quality sharpening on any knife, from gourmet knives to hunting knives--even serrated knives can be sharpened with this machine. For top-quality edges, there are two sharpening and honing stages, which use 100 percent diamond abrasives, and a final polishing stage. Each stage uses precision angle guides to create a unique Trizor-Plus edge for maximum sharpness and durability, while a magnetic pad collects residue so the machine is easy to clean and maintain. While a sharp knife is indeed a safe knife, it's wise to use caution with your newly sharpened knives, as they'll be sharper than you expect. --Laura CuthbertFrom the Manufacturer For all fine-edge knives, and even serrated knives (as demonstrated in the image), the Chef's Choice 120 three-stage diamond hone professional sharpener lets you select the edge to match the need.
