What do professional knife sharpeners use?
For most knives, I use the Tormek slow wet grinding sharpening system. The wheel on this system only rotates at 90 rpm. I use two Tormek machines in my process. The first is used as the main sharper and is almost always set to 1000 grit which is a pretty fine starting grit.
What is the best way to sharpen knives at home?
The most common way to hone a knife is by honing steel. These inexpensive tools ($10 to $30) are essentially steel rods with a handle. The surface of the rod is coarse, and scraping a blade across the rod (at the proper angle), on both sides nudges (hones) its edge back in place.
How do I choose a knife sharpener?
Knives should always be sharpened under bright light. When sharpening, use a marker and draw a line down the length of the edge of the knife. Then, find the correct angle for the sharpening. For pocket knives, as well as hunting knives, an angle of 25 to 30 degrees is best.
