Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). Incredibly easy to use, this sharpener will put a razor sharp edge back on dull or blunt kitchen knives, outdoor knives and scissors. All those personal preferences fed into our decision to offer 5 different accessory grades of diamond stone to be used with the FTS KS. Smith’s Edge Grip Select 2-step knife sharpener is made with carbide blades, perfect for bringing your dull and damaged knives back to life, and ceramic blades for those quick touch-ups and polishing of already sharpened knives. Be careful when breaking in a coarse side (300 grit / 50 micron) to wipe down the tool thoroughly before moving to the fine side (1000 grit / 15 micron) to avoid cross-contamination and therefore taking a much coarser diamond onto a much finer side – it will scratch it!

Other sharpeners are static and require the user to apply the pressure, often causing too much steel to be removed and, in fact, dulling the knife edge rather than making it sharper. Seated directly underneath the two discs is a removable trough with a magnetic pad, which captures the swarf during sharpening. All the products have a breaking in period, there is an excess layer of diamond which needs to be removed before the surface is at its optimum designed sharpening abrasion.

This helps to prevent damage to the side of the blade during a sharpening stroke and over time helps to burnish the side of the knife. The steel is resistant to rust and stains and has superb durability a long life if used correctly and looked after properly.

Always make sure any fingers or body parts are out of the blade€™s path as you use the Bavarian Edge.We quickly learnt how many existing sharpeners on the market actually damaged the knives they purport to be sharpening.

The only way to quote the flatness of a diamond stone accurately is from the substrate only because of the variation of the diamond particles (+/- 11%) and because the new product does have to be broken in. We’ve learnt it helps the less experienced to stand the FTS KS on its non slip nitrile feet on a worktop, it isn’t as quick as using it freehand but it can give much needed confidence to the novice and it Improves the sense of control over the sharpening process. If you were to try and sharpen a serrated bread knife or a serrated carving knife or fruit knife on a static sharpener, you would just remove the serrations and leave yourself with a very dull knife indeed.The Edge Grip Select has a non-slip base giving you added stability while sharpening your straight edge knives and Smith’s patented Edge Grip technology allows for sharpening on a table or countertop edge to prevent your larger knives from dragging over the surface. We’ve had excellent results re-sharpening bread knives etc using the FTS KS however the trough of the serration remains untouched. This means that with extremely slight pressure a very dull blade can easily be transformed into a fully operational cutting edge. The sharpener is powered by a high torque motor, which is quite audible and runs at a constant speed under load and drives two rotating diamond coated discs.
