How do I sharpen knives that are higher than the sharpener?
To grind broad blades, where the cutting edge stands higher than the grinding disc, elevate the sharpener with a suitably thick cutting board to ensure contact with the cutting edge is within the radius of the diamond.
What is the diamond disc and the stainless steel honing disc for?
The industrial diamonds used by Savvy Nest are the optimal material for restoring knife blades of any hardness to an optimal basic sharpness.
With the coarse diamond grinding wheel, you resharpen your knives in the first step and achieve a very good grinding result.
After coarse sharpening with the diamond disc, the cutting edge gets a fine finish with the stainless steel honing wheel, and the last burr on the cutting edge is smoothed out.
Only a few movements to the front and back are needed here to achieve the desired result.
Can I sharpen my one-sided ground Japanese knife with this knife sharpener?
Yes, this is possible. Since Japanese knives are often sharpened on one side, you only want to resharpen one side of such blades. The Savvy Nest Magnetic Rolling Knife Sharpener allows both 15, 20 degree sharpening angles and even more. The blade can be sharpened alternately from both sides and thus also only on one side.
