Chef’s Choice Knife sharpening machine for knives with an Asian edge (UK Plug)

Introduction A major benefit of Japanese or Asian blades is the sharpening angle of the cutting edge of the knife. It’s is smaller than with European knives. This enhances the sharpness of these knives. Of course, you must take this into account when sharpening. Since an electric sharpening machine determines the angle by itself, it’s important to use the right machine. The Chef’s Choice 316, with a sharpening angle of 15 is the ideal electric sharpener for these kitchen knives. In two phases, the diamond sharpenings wheels quickly sharpen your knives on two sides, so you never again have to endure the inconvenience of a dull blade. That works nicer and safer! It is even possible to use this machine to make an Asian edge on blade that originally have a European edge.
