STEP 1
With knife on the guides, squeeze power switch,
and pull the knife straight and steadily through
across the belt from heel to tip of blade. Power
off when the point of the blade is on the center
of the belt.
TIP: An 4” knife should take 2 seconds per
stroke.
Repeat until a slight burr develops on the
opposite side (usually 5-10 strokes – harder
steels may require more strokes).
PROPER TECHNIQUE: Keep the blade in the slot, up
against the amber line on the Angle Guide and with
the blade resting on the Edge Guide. Maintain this
position and stop as the tip reaches the center of the
belt.
