Instrukcja obsługi

The WÜSTHOF 2-Stage Hand-Held Knife Sharpener features two distinct stages for optimal knife sharpening:

1. Stage 1: Coarse Sharpening (Carbide Wheels)

   To jesttage utilizes hard carbide abrasive wheels designed for sharpening blunt knives or restoring a severely dull edge. Hold the E-Z grip handle with one hand and the knife handle with the other. Insert the knife blade fully into the "COARSE" slot at a 90-degree angle to the sharpener. Pull the knife back towards you a few times (typically 3-5 pulls) with light, consistent pressure. The preset angle (34°) of the carbide slats guides your blade precisely.

2. Stage 2: Fine Honing (Ceramic Rods)

   After setting the knife's edge with the coarse side, proceed to this stage for fine honing. This stage uses fine ceramic rods to nicely finish the edge, making it razor sharp. Insert the knife blade fully into the "FINE" slot at a 90-degree angle. Pull the knife back towards you a few times (typically 3-5 pulls) with very light pressure. This process polishes the edge and removes any burrs.

For best results, alternate between the coarse and fine stages as needed, always finishing with the fine honing stage. Wipe the blade clean with a damp cloth after sharpening to remove any metal particles.

Rozwiązywanie problemów

• Knife not sharpening: Ensure you are applying consistent, light pressure and pulling the knife through the slots at a 90-degree angle. Make sure to use the coarse stage first for very dull knives.
• Uneven edge: This may indicate inconsistent pressure or angle. Practice with an old knife to refine your technique.
