The Model 710 knife sharpener is designed to create a factory sharp, 15° edge on each side
of the blade, which is typically used by manufacturers of quality fish fillet knives. The 15° edge
also happens to be the standard factory edge of most Asian style kitchen knives. Over the past
few years, European manufacturers of kitchen and household knives have also broadly adopted
the 15° edge for their traditional European knife lines.

knife blades.
If you have an older European/American style knife that was originally sharpened at 20°, it
is relatively simple to convert its edge to a 15° edge. However, it will take more passes in stage
one, the first time the knife is sharpened, to re-angle the edge.
1. Sharpen Serrated Blades - Only in Stage 2. Do not sharpen serrated blades in Stage 1
until you read section titled Procedure for Sharpening Serrated Blades.
2. Straight Edge Blades are sharpened in Stages 1 and 2. Start in Stage 1 if the knife is
being sharpened for the first time or if the knife is very dull. See following Section for
more details.
PROcEDURE FOR ShARPENING STRAIGhT EDGE BlADES
Before you turn on the power, slip a knife blade smoothly into the slot between the left angle
guide of Stage 1 and the flexible spring guide. Do not twist the knife (see Figure 3.)
Move the blade down in the slot until you feel it contact the diamond disk. Pull it towards you
lifting the handle slightly as you approach the tip. This will give you a feel for the spring tension.
Now, remove the knife and turn on the sharpener by sliding the Power Switch to the left.
Stage 1: If you are sharpening a straight-edge knife for the first time, start in Stage 1. Pull
the knife once through the left slot of Stage 1 (Figure 3) by slipping the blade between the left
angle guide and the flexible spring guide while pulling the blade toward you and simultaneously
moving the blade downward in the slot until it engages the diamond coated disk. You will hear
it make contact with the disk. Insert the blade as close as possible to its bolster or handle. If
the blade is curved, lift the handle slightly as you sharpen near the tip of the knife, keeping the
blade edge approximately parallel to the table. Sharpen the entire blade length. For an eight (8)
inch blade each pull should take about 5 seconds. Pull shorter blades through in 2-3 seconds
and longer blades in 6 seconds. Next, repeat with one full length pull in the right slot of Stage 1.
Note: Each time you insert the blade, simultaneously pull the blade toward you. Never push
the blade away from you. Apply just enough downward pressure to make contact with the wheel
– added pressure does not speed up the sharpening process.
