for serrated knives.You will find it

About serrated knives

Serrated knives are essentially saws with

teeth along the cutting edge. Depending

on the manufacturer and intended use,

the size, number and shape of the teeth

can vary widely. These teeth (serrations)

may either be ground into only one side

of the blade creating an asymmetrical

(off-center) edge; or may be ground into

both sides of the blade so that the teeth

are symmetrical (centered). The important

thing to remember is that, for household

use, the cutting effectiveness of the

serrations depends almost entirely on

the sharpness of the points (edges) of

the teeth. It is not necessary to sharpen

the top and sides of the scallops between

the teeth, since in general, they are not

doing the cutting. The Chef’sChoice

®

Model 430 sharpener is designed to

sharpen teeth at the edge or point so that

the prominent teeth become razor-sharp

“micro knives.”

sharpener is “ambidextrous”- easy

to use whether you are right-or left-hand-

ed. Place the sharpener on a level surface

about waist high. If right-handed, position

the sharpener with the Chef’sChoice

logo facing you. Hold the handle so your

left index finger and thumb remain safely

behind the partitioning wall where the

handle attaches to the sharpening stages.

(If left-handed, see Suggestions.)

CAUTION: Keep all fingers clear of the knife blade

at all times.

General sharpening instructions

Make certain the blade is clean - free of

all food, fat and grease - then proceed

as follows:

Holding the knife in the right hand, place

the blade in slot. Lean the face of the

blade securely against the red conical

roller guides. While continuing to keep the

blade in contact with the rollers, move the

blade smoothly back and forth in the slot

along the entire blade length. Make sure

one or both rollers move with each back

and forth stroke to ensure that the blade

is in good contact with the rollers. It is

not necessary to lift the blade after each

stroke. Apply little or no downward

pressure on the blade. The light “sawing”

sound you hear as the blade moves

across the 100% diamond abrasives tells

you the diamonds are doing the work for

you! Continue this back-and-forth motion

until the blade is sharp.

Do not oversharpen. The number of

strokes required will depend on the size

and type of serrations and the condition

(dullness) of the teeth.

sharpener has been designed with

the optimal diamond abrasive to sharpen

your knives safely while producing an

extremely sharp edge. A coarser grit

would cause excessive wear and tear

of the serrations. The fine diamond grits

used in the Model 430 helps extend the

life of your knives. The first time you

sharpen a knife may take a little longer,

but resharpening will be fast and safe.

Sharpening for the first time

Knives with fine serrations and a

symmetrical edge (serrations on both

sides of the edge) may require only 10 full

strokes the first time you sharpen them.

Knives with larger thicker, off-center, or

very dull teeth may require up to 50 full

strokes. (A full stroke is one pull along the

entire cutting edge of the knife through

the sharpener together with the return

stroke, pushing the entire cutting edge of

the knife through the sharpener.)

Start with only 10 full strokes and

apply no downward pressure. Examine

teeth along blade for sharpness and wear.

Check your progress by periodically

testing the edge on food; e.g. tomatoes.

Resharpening

Knives can be resharpened using the

procedures described above. However,

resharpening will be faster and, in

general, require only about 10-20 full

strokes with care. You will be able to

resharpen your serrated knives many

times before the serrations become

noticeably worn. Although the diamond

abrasives used in the Chef’sChoice

very fine, in time, serrations will be

reduced in size and the knife will perform

more like a sharp find edge blade. To
