Sharpening Tools

Many professional chefs and owners sharpen their knives using the items below. You can use a sharpening rod/steel, hand held sharpener or a sharpening system. It all depends on your knowledge and experience of sharpening kitchen knives. You will hear a lot of  different opinions on which sharpening system to use. In my opinion, you should use what works for you. Some like the multi-oil stones, some like the water stones (recommended), and others like the guided sharpening systems that is exclusively for those that need a little more of easier simple instruction.

For more information on how to sharpen your knives, I recommend you go to the following links for more information:

Sharpening Steel Rods

Steels are available in a variety of sizes and should be longer than the knife to be sharpened. The blade should be drawn across the steel at a 20- to 30-degree angle several times. If the blade is dull, it should first be sharpened on a stone, then fine-honed on a steel. Using a steel on a knife before each use will keep the blade razor-sharp.

Users are bound to have their particular preferences – and sometimes there are even regional differences. One person prefers round, another oval. Speaking in general terms, we can make the following distinctions:
Round: lightweight steel with punctiform sharpening surface
Oval: contact over a wide area, yielding more rapid and effective grinding results
Flat: linear contact, maximum effectiveness
Tetragonal: combines two sharpening steels in one.

Coarse sharpening surface: for domestic use
Diamond: diamond surface for a very high level of abrasion
Standard: high ablation
Fine sharpening surface: low ablation
Polished: no abrasion, only for polishing and priming the cutting edge.

Depending on the coarseness or fineness of the sharpening steel surface you get a certain degree of surface roughness in the sharpened cutting edge. This greater or lesser surface roughness results from the stress marks that are left by the sharpening process. When the blade is correctly whetted on the sharpening steel, the grinding traces will be transverse to the cutting edge. On the cutting edge itself, where the furrows from both sides come together, a more or less markedly toothed and saw like line (depending on the degree of roughness) comes into being. You can aim for maximum smoothness of this line or for some degree of roughness – it depends on the purpose for which the knife is intended. A toothed cutting edge will make it easier to penetrate a hard material (such as the skin of fruit and vegetables, bread, roasted meat crust and so on).

You should avoid doing this as dish washers use highly aggressive cleaning agents which can attack the steel. The residual steam and moisture when the machine is closed can result in corrosion. High-pressure water jets can easily blunt the finely ground cutting edge of the knife. The best course is to clean your knife immediately after use, using a cloth and a mild washing up liquid.
