Knife sharpener with diamond-coated sharpening discs for Japanese/Asian and European grinded knives.

Let us hone your decision-making skills to select the perfect sharpening tools!

Are your knives in need of sharpening?

Kitchen knives can be divided into two groups: European with a 20 degree sharpening angle (per side, so 40 in total) or Japanse/Asian with a sharpening angle of approx. 15 degrees (per side, so 30 in total). The advantage of the Asian sharpening method is that the edge is thinner and can therefore be sharpened sharper. The advantage of the European sharpening method is that the edge is a little thicker and therefore less sensitive to chipping. In many kitchens you find both types of knives. Of course these knives need to be sharpened the right way, with the matching sharpening angle. 

While many electric sharpening machines are suited for either one or the other sharpening angle, the Chef'sChoice 1520 can handle both. This sharpening machine has three sharpening stages. Stage one is meant to restore the edge of an Asian knife. Stage two does the same for European knives, while stage three is the polishing stage for both types of knives. The knives are sharpened on diamond-coated sharpening stones. The left and right side are sharpened individually to make sure that one-sided knives, something that is common for Japanese chef's knives, can also be sharpened with the 1520. 

In addition to smooth knives you can also sharpen serrated knives. For it you only use stage three. 

  * Sharpening stage 1: coarse diamond-coated sharpening stone

  * Sharpening stage 2: medium diamond-coated sharpening stone

  * Sharpening stage 3: fine ceramic sharpening stone

Super efficace et très simple à utiliser.
Tous les couteaux de notre cuisine ont retrouvé un super tranchant, sans besoin d’ insister sur les passages. Attention à vos doigts !!

This is my second Chef'sChoice the first lasted about 8 years. (When you feel your sharpener isn't as good as it used to be, replace it). This new version made a burr in just a few pulls where my old one was taking 20 pulls - just replace your old sharpener. 

I sharpen two large and four pearing knives every 2-3 months. I know I should use a steel a few times a week but I never do. I cook meals from scratch so I use my knives every day. 

PRO:
If you want or need sharp knives this is much cheaper than sending them out to be sharpened every few months. 

CON:
A true sharpening wheel is very very large and it can create a longer lasting arc in the knife bevel. BUT go back to the PRO and you can have sharp edges for far less money with this product. 

Goed apparaat en vriendelijk geprijsd bij K&T.
