Sharpal Inc. is a leading manufacturer of professional and patented multifunction knife and tool sharpeners for the outdoor and sports, garden and workshop, and culinary and kitchen industries. For more than 25 years we have been passionately researching and developing quality products, which provide consumers with an easy and cost-effective way to obtain a sharp edge.
There is a ‘break-in’ period for diamond sharpeners. When first use, the surface will appear to be especially rough. This roughness is due to the final manufacturing process and will be removed over time without impacting performance. As the diamond surface wears down, more and more diamond grits are exposed and the sharpener cuts faster.

PUSH the blade AWAY from you like you are trying to carve a thin slice off the top of the stone. Push the knife blade across the stone as you push to sharpen the cutting edge all the way out to the tip of the blade (See Fig. 2). Repeat this PUSHING stroke several times. Remember to hold the angle as you push and try to maintain a consistent sharpening angle with each stroke. This is the key to obtaining the sharpest cutting edge. |
Next, place the sharpening angle guide on the other end of the stone to sharpen the other side of your blade. Again, lean your blade on the angle guide to get the correct sharpening angle (See Fig. 3). |
PULL the blade TOWARD you like you are trying to carve a thin slice off the top of the stone. As you pull the blade down the length of the stone, pull the blade across the stone to sharpen the entire cutting edge. Let the tip come off the edge of the diamond stone (See Fig. 4). Repeat this PULLING stroke the same number of times as you did on the opposite side of your blade and try to maintain a consistent sharpening angle with each stroke. Continue sharpening both sides of your blade until you feel that your blade is truly sharp. If you started with Coarse 325 grit (45 micron) side, move to 1200 grit (9 micron) side, repeating the sharpening process. |
