If you are looking for the best knife sharpener for domestic or commercial use, Chef's Choice have an extensive range of sharpeners to choose from. With the Chef’sChoice Model 316 you have the most up-to-date technology enabling you to delicately hone and polish the very sharp edges characteristic of thin oriental blades and it will do the job extremely quickly.
This sharpener has two sharpening stages that sharpen the edges at 15 degrees. Stage 1 hones each side of the edge with fine 100% diamond abrasives. Stage 2 polishes the edge using ultra-fine 100% diamond abrasives. Contemporary Japanese blades, Chinese cleavers and modern European style knives should be honed and polished on both sides of the blade. With this sharpener, in both stages the left and right sides of the blade are sharpened separately, which also enables you to hone and polish traditional single-beveled Japanese blades.
Highly precise elastomeric knife angle guides automatically position your knife at the correct sharpening angle for optimum sharpening, providing you with a reliable sharpening method that gives a factory quality edge in just minutes.
Use it for:
Asian Knives including traditional single bevel blades
Santoku Knives
Serrated Knives such as Tomato knives and Bread knives
Hunting Knives
Pocket Knives
Stage 1 - use fine 100% diamond abrasives to sharpen
Stage 2 - use ultra fine abrasives for re-sharpening and honing for a razor sharp edge, removing only micro amounts of steel immediately adjacent to the edge - allowing you to resharpen often without any concern for the life of your knife
Because only fine and ultra fine diamonds are used in this sharpener, it is not designed to sharpen very thick knives such as some Deba type knives, thick sporting knives, heavier European chef knives, European cleavers and some of the thicker sashimi blades. These thicker knives can be sharpened in other Chef’sChoice sharpeners such as Models 120 and Commercial 2000.
Engineered and assembled in the U.S.A.
