6. Use only light downward pressure when sharpening – just enough to establish secure
contact with the abrasive disk. Greater pressure does not speed the sharpening.
7. If your knife has a significant choil you may find it helpful to place your index finger within
or just behind the choil (see Figures 5 and 6) as you insert the blade in the sharpener. Your
finger can act as a "stop" and prevent you from inserting the blade so far that the choil
area will catch on the front stop-bar of the sharpener as you withdraw the blade.
A little practice will help you perfect this technique. As you insert the blade let your finger
slide down the front of the sharpener.
8. Used correctly, you will find you can sharpen the entire blade to within
or the sharpener handle. This is a major advantage of the Chef'sChoice
compared to other sharpening methods
9. Do not attempt to use this sharpener to sharpen either steel knives or scissors.
