How to use Wolfgang Puck electric knife sharpener

It should have a model number somewhere. Go very light handed with it and have it somewhere nice and firm.

From what I can see, (I am a chef and knifemaker), your kitchen knives would be done on slot A, pocket knives on B.

How Do Knife Sharpeners Work?

Knife sharpeners are a way of preserving
knives and other such tools that have become blunt with use and therefore less
effective.


Sharpeners work by grinding the knife
against a hard, rough surface. Usually stone is the most common type of
sharpener but sandpaper (which has a soft surface but is hard), can also be
used.



You can take your knives to a knife shop
where they will sharpen them for you (on average once a year), but if you are a
keen knife user and want to keep your knives sharp and in excellent condition,
it might be worth buying a sharpener of your own.



To sharpen your own knives you’ll need to invest in a good whetstone. These are
stones that are available in fine, medium and coarse grits.


The sharpener will come with
instructions about the angle you need to place the knife at in order to sharpen
it.


You can also buy stones for polishing
and to complete the job properly, after you have sharpened your knife, you
should polish it.

The best knife company guarantee I have ever heard of. You will love the knives...

Hi everyone! Every now and then we all run across an item that is terrific in one way or another. Today I want to tell you about a company that manufactures excellent, durable kitchen knives, sporting knives, garden tools and other related items. What is remarkable about this company is their lifetime guarantee! Can you imagine a company that manufactures kitchen knives, which often get lots of hard, daily use, offering to keep that knife or set sharp and in good shape for ever!! All you have to do is ship the knife or set back to the factory where it will be sharpened and sometimes replaced for free and all you pay is a small shipping fee. I know......truly unheard of these days. Well the company is called CUTCO and here is a link to their site http://www.cutco.com/customer/guarantee.jsp

I am directing you to their lifetime guarantee page but once you go there you can check out their products, order their products, AND even go to work for them as a part-time sales representative. WOW!! It is almost too good to be true but it is infact totally true. I have some of their knives, which I always go to first, and I have taken them up on their free sharpening service. If you aren't as pleased as I am about these knives I will be surprised. AND let me tell you this true story. I have a good friend who is an avid hunter. He was given one of the Cutco hunting knives a few years ago and used it for everything you could imagine. Well, he sent it into the company and they apparently thought it was so worn that it was not worth sharpening and repairing..... soooooooooo they gave him a brand new one as a replacement for free........... imagine a free replacement of an expensive, quality knife......Now there's a reason to buy American!!!

Hope you enjoyed reading my tip and if you decide to purchase one or more Cutco knives, enjoy it!! Joe

What kinds of pencil sharpners are there?

There are many kinds of pencil sharpeners that have been developed through the years.

The most common ones, the manual sharpners, can be of the following kinds:

Mechanical sharpeners: a portable variety, usually small and in the shape of a rectangular prism. The blade inside rotates around the pencil, sharpening it. The shavings emerge through a slot.

Blade sharpeners: small and portable, hold replaceable shaving razor blades or permanently fitted blades. They work similarly to knives, but in a more convenient and safe way.

Cylindrical cutters: larger variety, stationary, powered by a crank. One hand holds the pencil, the other turns the crank.

Another common pencil sharpener found often in offices is the electric sharpener. It works on the same principle as the manual sharpener, but the blade rotates quickly thanks to an electric motor, either powered by batteries or plugged into the electrical system.

There are still people, mainly artists, that sharpen their pencils with a knife.

Difficulty shaving Spanish Water Dog

The biggest issue with clipping animals (except sheep which use completely different clippers) is that once you have sharpened blades, you need to go slow and keep then blades oiled and cooled. The KOOL spray by oster works great and the clippers you are using are a good reliable brand and model. When clipping my cocker/schnauzer cross, I have a 1/2 inch guard on it (have to use a 30 or 40 blade with the guards) and it takes about an hour. I stop every 10 minutes or so to let them cool down, spray and oil them.

My Blender knives don't cut good anymore, what should i do?Can they be changed?or should I buy a new one?

Hello,
Do you mean blender blades?
Either way, your blender blades/knives need to be sharpened.
This is the key to making your blender last a long time.
You may need to reach into the unit to sharpen them if the blade part doesn't twist off.
Good luck :)

Chipper Maintenance

Maintenance (excluding the power plant) Your primary maintenance concern with chippers and shredders is their knives. You can re-sharpen chipper knives, whereas you can reverse shredder flail-type knives when dull but you can not re-sharpen them. You must sharpen chipper knives with special sharpening equipment because they are made of high-carbon steel. Maintaining sharp knives can lengthen their life and the life of the machine by keeping power requirements low. An over-dulled or chipped chipper knife will need extensive sharpening, which will remove a large portion of the blade. This obviously will shorten its life. As soon as a blade is slightly dull, you should sharpen it to minimize the amount of blade-material that you remove. All knives need sharpening at the same time to keep them in balance-even if only one is worn or chipped. Also, you must use matched sets to keep the knife the same distance from the anvil for proper chipping and feeding. After removing the knives, clean the area where they are fastened with a wire brush to make sure they will align correctly. Be sure to torque the knife bolts to their proper specifications. You will need to examine the anvil and be sure it maintains a good, square edge. Occasionally, you may need to remove and sharpen it.
