- Q: Is it safe to sharpen expensive cutlery with the Chef's Choice Model 320?
A: Yes. The Chef's Choice Model 320 will safely sharpen expensive or inexpensive cutlery. It will sharpen knives manufactured from the hardest alloys.
- Q: Will the Chef's Choice Model 320 cause excessive wear to my knives?
A: No. Ninety-eight percent of the re-sharpening takes place in Stage 2. The ultra-fine abrasive in this stage removes only microscopic amounts of metal. In fact, when compared to other sharpening methods, the Chef's Choice 320 removes much less metal. There is no other way to sharpen and remove less metal.
- Q: Do I need to use a steel or professional sharpening service to help keep my knives sharp?
A: No. In fact, a steel, which has no angular control, will deteriorate the super fine edge obtained by the Chef's Choice 320, and the use of a professional sharpening service is unnecessary once you own a Chef's Choice sharpener.
- Q: Do the diamond abrasives and stropping/polishing stage wear out, and how would I replace them?
A: The abrasives will last for many, many years without need for repair or replacement. If the abrasives need replacement, you may send the sharpener back to EdgeCraft and, for a nominal fee, EdgeCraft will replace the abrasives, clean and lubricate the sharpener and ship it back. The abrasives, however, should last a long time with normal household use.
- Q: Can the abrasives be cleaned?
A: The Stage 2 stropping/polishing disks can be restored to "as-new condition" if they become dirty and/or glazed. A unique cleaning/dressing tool can be actuated using the lever in the back of the sharpener.
- Q: Does the Chef's Choice Model 320 sharpen serrated knives?
A: Yes. The Chef's Choice 320 is designed to sharpen both straight edge and serrated knives. It straightens, re-aligns and sharpens the serrated tips in stage 2. TIP: A straight edged knife sharpened on the Chef's Choice 320 will do a much cleaner job of cutting a tomato or a loaf of bread than a serrated knife.
- Q: Does the Chef's Choice Model 320 sharpen scissors?
A: The Chef's Choice 320 will not sharpen scissors, however, EdgeCraft does manufacture a scissors sharpener, the ScissorPro Model 500 that incorporates 100% diamond abrasives and similar technology to produce astonishingly sharp edges.
