SHARPENING PROCEDURES
Only sharpen clean objects. Move all knives and scissors under slight pressure in one fluent move-
ment towards your body during the sharpening operation. Never move in both directions. Repeat
this procedure until the desired degree of sharpness has been obtained. The quality of the sharpening
procedure is primarily dependent on the quality of the steel. Always sharpen knives and scissors
about the whole length in order to avoid deformations. Strong pressure and tilting the tools block the
grinding disc. In this case start the sharpening operation once again.
