Stage one, the V-shaped cutting head with crossed carbide blades (coarse) quickly sharpens dull knives. Stage two, the ceramic side (fine), provides a polished, razor sharp finish to the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Universal Knife Sharpener has been designed with two pairs of carbide and ceramic notches - one angled for standard knife blades, and the second specifically designed for the unique angle of Asian blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo use the Universal Knife Sharpener, first select Asian or Standard by sliding the cover to the appropriate side, and then place the sharpener on a flat work surface, holding the sharpener with one hand and the knife handle with the other. Insert the knife blade fully into the notch (carbide for dull blades, ceramic for reasonably sharp blades) at a 90-degree angle to the sharpener (straight up and down). Apply moderate downward pressure on the blade while pulling the knife toward you. Repeat this action as necessary, always pulling the blade from heel to tip (never back and forth) through the notch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter use, always clean your sharpener with a damp cloth or mild brush, then wipe dry. Do not rinse with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the Universal Sharpener is suited to serrated and scalloped edges, use only the ceramic (fine) stage for these blades. The carbide stage will damage serrated blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures of the \u003cstrong\u003eWusthof Universal 4-Stage Knife Sharpener:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo stages to sharpen as well as hone your knife.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo sets of notches - one for standard blades, a second for Asian blades.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard carbide steel blades for coarse sharpening stage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine ceramic rods for honing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubberized base for sure grip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighted to be safe and secure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft grip handle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShop the entire \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hotswissknifeshopsale.com\/collections\/wusthof-knife-sharpeners-honing-steels\" title=\"Wusthof Knife Sharpeners and Honing Steels\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWusthof Sharpening \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003eline.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eLifetime Warranty\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wusthof","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29263546908777,"sku":"WU3069730101","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0258\/3566\/7561\/files\/WU3069730101-Wusthof-UniversalSharpener_standardside-01.jpg?v=1687806894","url":"https:\/\/hotswissknifeshopsale.com\/products\/wusthof-universal-4-stage-knife-sharpener","provider":"Swiss Knife Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
