Using Tips:
Do not add water or oil during honing
Your knife should be no shorter than 10 inches as well.
After using the sharpening steel, rinse and carefully wipe the blade dry with a towel so that any tiny metal filings on the knife's edge don't end up in the food you're about to work with.
Keep your knife steel handy while you're working in the kitchen. Just a few minutes of ordinary slicing on a wooden or plastic cutting board can knock your knife's delicate edge out of alignment.
Once you're accustomed to the feel of a sharp knife, you'll feel the difference right away. When you do, just a few quick strokes on the steel will straighten it right out again, without having to grind away any more blade on a whetstone.
How to use kitchen knife sharpener:
With your left hand, hold the sharpening steel point-down, with its tip resting firmly on a dry cutting board mdash; as if it were a large nail you were about to hammer into the board.
With the other hand, hold the knife crossways against the steel with the back of the blade (the part nearest the handle) touching the steel. You're going to be pulling the knife backward, toward you, so you want to start with most of the blade in front of the steel.
Tilt the knife so that its cutting edge meets the shaft of the sharpening steel at a 22 frac12;-degree angle. Don't have a protractor handy? That's OK! Remember that 90 degrees is a right angle, and 45 degrees is half of that. So 22 frac12; degrees is just half of that.
Now, maintaining this 22 frac12;-degree angle, gently pull the blade toward you while simultaneously gliding it downward along the shaft of the
