17° STANDARD RECIPE
All purpose recipe for any knife style.
SHARPEN STAGE | DOUBLE CLICK | 90 SECOND CYCLE
For best results, complete the full timed cycle.
MAINTAIN
TIP: Maintain once or twice per week
Use CERAMIC HONING ROD or cycle through REFINE stage.
REFINE STAGE | SINGLE CLICK | 45 SECOND CYCLE
Use this stage to maintain a sharp blade between sharpenings. For best results,
complete the full timed cycle, alternating sides.
SHARPENING BASICS
1. Insert the heel of the knife into the left
sharpening guide, keeping it up against the
leather lining and softly resting on the front
edge roller.
2. Using light pressure, slowly pull your knife
blade through the sharpening guide
(8” knife = 8 seconds per side).
3. Repeat on the right guide. Continue
alternating sides until the machine
automatically shuts off.
TIP: The sharpener will automatically
decrease in speed as it switches from the
SHARPEN stage to the REFINE stage. The
front light will flash letting you know when
it will change speed, and when the cycle
is almost complete.
4. Test for sharpness by slicing a tomato or bell
pepper.
a. If the blade slices well, proceed to
step 6 in the CERAMIC HONING ROD
section.
b. If your blade doesn’t slice easily, repeat
steps 1 – 4 using SHAPE stage (triple
click).
TIP: If you have repeated SHAPE stage 3
times through and blade still doesn’t slice
easily, we recommend the REPAIR AND
RESTORE recipe in the E5 UPGRADE KIT
(sold separately) for faster results.
Keep the knife lightly resting against
the leather lining and on rollers as
you pull through slowly.
