How does it work?
One of the things you will notice right off is how this sharpener is designed with safety in mind. The design is set up to protect your fingers from getting in the way and possibly causing an accident.
To begin you will hold the knife down on a table or workbench with the blade facing up. Next, you take the sharpener in your other hand and place it over the blade. Then you simply bring the sharpener down the length of the blade and go back and forth with it a few times.
One of the nicer aspects of this particular product is that you do not have to guess at the correct angle of the sharpener. After a few passes back and forth you will have a knife or blade that is as sharp as it was when you bought it.
The sharpening blades inside the unit are made of diamond honed tungsten carbide, which is one of the hardest materials available. The blades inside the AccuSharp are even designed to be reversible so you get double the life out of them. That said, you can expect to get an average of 5-10 years use out of them before needing a replacement.
Cleaning the AccuSharp 001 knife sharpener is as simple as putting it in your dishwasher if you like, or you can simply use soap and water on it. Since it will not rust you do not have to be concerned about getting it wet.
