4. Repeat Step 3 on each side of Stage 1, alternating in the right and left slots until you can
feel a uniform burr along the entire length of the knife.
5. Each pull should take about 4 to 6 seconds for an 8” knife. As you approach the tip of the
knife, lift the handle slightly to keep that part of the edge parallel to the table. Continue to
rest the edge lightly on the front Edge Stop Plate.
6. Normally 2-3 pairs of alternating pulls in Stage 1 will be sufficient to create a burr, unless
the knife is very dull or has been sharpened with a traditional steel since the last sharpen-
ing with the Model 2000. In the latter case, 5 or more pairs of alternating pulls in Stage 1
may be required to reform the edge facets and develop a burr. If you have difficulty creating
a burr, pull the blade through the slots at a slower rate. Going slower is more helpful than
many pulls.
7. When you confirm that a burr is formed along the entire edge length on each successive
pull, move to Stage 2.
Honing-Stage 2
1. MAKE CERTAIN THE KNIFE IS FREE OF FOOD, FAT OR OIL. Facing the front of the sharpener,
place the knife in one slot of Stage 2 as shown in Figure 7 with the face of the knife blade
lying flat against the Blade Guide.
2. Move the knife into the slot downward and forward until it engages the honing disk.
The knife edge should be gently seated on the Edge Stop Plate as it is pulled toward you.
3. Repeat Step 2 on each side of Stage 2, alternating in the right and left slots for
approximately 3 pulls on each side.
4. Each pull should take about 4 to 8 seconds for an 8” knife. Again, as in Stage 1, slightly lift
the handle as you approach the tip area, but continue to keep the edge in light contact with
the Edge Stop Plate.
5. Generally 3 alternating pairs of pulls are sufficient. Test the edge for sharpness by cutting a
piece of paper or slicing a tomato and, if it is less than razor sharp, pull several more times
in each slot of Stage 2. If the knife is not ultra-sharp, return to Stage 1 and develop a burr
before repeating the honing sequence.
