Kitchen knives in a typical home kitchen often face a challenging life. They're tossed into dishwashers and carelessly stored in drawers, leading to minor dings and micro-corrosion on the blades. While pull-through sharpeners are fast and easy to use, they can catch on these small notches, potentially causing further damage.
On the other hand, methods like whetstones and sharpening rods are gentler and can address minor blade damage. However, they require a much higher level of skill and patience than the average home chef typically has time for, with proper whetstone sharpening of a single blunt knife taking 30 minutes or more.
The Smart Sharp has been designed to combine the best features of these sharpening methods into a single device. It offers the speed and ease of use of a traditional pull-through sharpener, while also incorporating aspects of whetstone sharpening to protect your knives and make the process more effective and gentle.
The Smart Sharp's three-stage process starts with coarse diamond-coated rods that "roughen" the knife edge, preparing it for the second stage. This stage utilizes precision-angled tungsten carbide plates to create the perfect "V" edge, even on the bluntest of knives. The final stage uses fine ceramic stone rods to remove any burrs and gently polish the blade for a super-sharp finish.
The Smart Sharp is designed for use with most kitchen knives in Europe and the USA, which are typically sharpened to an angle of approximately 20 degrees (known as "Western-style" knives). It is not suitable for ceramic knives, scissors, micro-serrated knives, Japanese-style knives, or knives previously sharpened using whetstones or steels.
The Smart Sharp features an ergonomic, comfortable handle suitable for both right- and left-handed users, and a heavy-duty, non-slip rubber base for stability and safety. It comes with full instructions, a helpful quick-start video guide, and access to Lantana's team of sharpening experts for any additional support you may need.
Available in three fabulous colors - classic black, deep red, and vibrant green - the Smart Sharp Knife Sharpener is a smart choice for quickly and effectively keeping your kitchen knives in top condition.
