Manual

serrations, use little to no downward

pressure when sharpening and sharpen

just long enough to sharpen the points of

the teeth.

Instructions for Sharpening

Electric Knife Blades

(2 Reciprocating Blades)

1. Insure that the electric knife is

disconnected from the power source.

2. With the 2 reciprocating blades

installed in the normal manner in drive

unit proceed with sharpening.

3. Insert the knife (with blades in place)

into the sharpening slot and lean them

against the red roller guides.

4. Move the knife back and forth 10-20

times until a noticeable improvement

in the sharpness of the tips of the

serrations is achieved. With some very

dull knives more than 20 back and

forth cycles might be needed.

NOTE: Do Not apply any downward pressure on the knife

during sharpening.

5. It is important that the knife blades

remain in contact with the roller guides

during the entire sharpening process.

Make sure that at least one of the red

roller guides is always rotating as the

knife is moved back and forth.

6. Most of the electric knives are

equipped with 2 reciprocating blades

that interlock at the tip with a specially

designed rivet. This rivet may prevent

sharpening the very tip of the knife.

However, in most cases, that portion

of the blade does not play a very

important role in the cutting function.

7. After many sharpenings, the size of the

serrations will be reduced. However,

knife blades that may have become

useless because they were too dull

can be revitalized several times,

signiﬁcantly extending their useful

lifetime and saving the cost of buying

replacement blades more often.

Testing for sharpness

Try slicing a tomato or other food before

you sharpen your knife. Then test the

knife periodically during sharpening until

you achieve the sharpness you desire.

Ideally, a well-sharpened knife should

slice cleanly through food without

excessive force and without crushing it.

Suggestions

If left-handed, turn the sharpener so the

Chef’sChoice

brand name faces away

from you. Hold the handle with your right

hand and the knife with your left and

follow the instructions above.

Never sharpen a knife that is not

completely clean. Small amounts of food,

fat or grease on the knife will coat the

abrasive surfaces and seriously reduce

their effectiveness.
