Sharpening
Sharp knives are safer than dull ones because dull knives require more pressure for cutting, which can result in slipping. Sharpening knives with a sharpening steel can seem difficult at first, but it’s actually quite easy once you get the hang of it. |
| 1. |
Hold sharpening steel point down on flat stable surface like table or cutting board |
| 2. |
Angle the knife blade so that it is approximately 15 degrees from the sharpening steel |
| 3. |
Pull the knife down & across the sharpening steel in a slight arc, pulling the knife handle toward you. Stroke the entire blade edge from base to tip. |
| 4. |
Repeat on the other side of the steel. |
| 5. |
Repeat steps 3 & 4 three to five times, alternating the right & left side of the cutting edge. |
|
|
| • |
Knives should be sharpened after every couple uses for maximum performance. |
| • |
Use a scouring powder to clean & remove metal particles from your sharpening steel. After cleaning the steel, rinse it with water, dry it thoroughly & store it in a dry place. |
|
|
| Cleaning |
| • |
For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth & dry immediately. |
| • |
Soaking wood-handled knives in water can remove the natural oils from the handles. |
| • |
Dishwashing may cause banging against other dishes that can nick the edges. Additionally, the heat & detergent may have a corrosive effect on the handles. |
|
|
| Storing |
| • |
Sharp knives should never be stored loose in a drawer because contact with hard objects can dull the blade & reaching into a knife drawer can be very dangerous. |
| • |
We recommend storing your knives in a hardwood block for safety & convenience. Many Chicago Cutlery sets include a hardwood block for storage. Empty Chicago Cutlery hardwood blocks are also available at many retailers. |
|
|
| SAFETY |
| • |
Keep knives sharp at all times. |
| • |
Use the correct size & type of knife for the job. |
| • |
Cut away from the body when possible. |
| • |
Use knives with a wooden or polyethylene cutting board. |
| • |
After handling a knife, lay it down in a cleared area with the blade away from the body & safe distance from the edge of the cutting area. |
| • |
Do not reach blindly for a knife; reach deliberately for the handle. |
| • |
Never try to catch a falling knife. |
| • |
Do not use a knife to stab, pull, or lift materials. |
| • |
Knives should not be used as can openers, screw drivers, or ice picks nor are they intended for prying apart frozen food. |
