Product Description A sharp knife is simply a joy to use. Everything is easier, safer and faster – chopping, mincing and precision cutting. And now it’s easier than ever to keep your knives sharp with our powerful Mini Pro Knife Sharpener. This stylish, yet functional kitchen tool was designed and engineered in Switzerland to sharpen Japanese and German style blades as well as non-stick coated blades. The quality Japanese ceramic stone gives a perfect edge every time and the sharpener has an integrated hand-guard and non-slip feet for extra safety. The compact size and peek-a-boo lid means that it is easily and safely stored on the kitchen counter ready to sharpen your knives every time you use them. How to use: 1. Sharpen clean and dry blades only. Do not sharpen ceramic or serrated blades 2. Raise the lid to slide the sharpening stone out (the lid then snaps into place to become a hand guard) 3. Place the sharpener on a clean, dry and flat surface. Hold with one hand behind the hand guard. 4. Gently draw the entire length of blade from heel to tip between the ceramic wheels – applying light pressure as if slicing bread. Repeat 5 – 10 times 5. Draw the knife parallel to the plastic moulding and NOT to the angle of stone. The angle is preset for optimum sharpening 6. Do not use excessive force or force the blade through the sharpener How to clean: Do not clean in a dishwasher or submerge in water. Simply clean the exterior of the sharpener only with a damp towel. 2 year guarantee. Set Contains: 1 x Kuhn Rikon Mini Pro Knife Sharpener, Red
