Knives: The sharpener is designed to be used flat on the edge of a table, bench, stump, or a rock by drawing the blade through the center of the carbide bits at a 45 degree angle downward. A very dull knife should be pulled with fairly heavy pressure. As the edge comes back, reduce the pressure and stroke lightly to finish. A serrated knife has to be pulled through very slowly (the smaller the serrations, the slower you go). Don't use heavy pressure on serrated knives. Electric Knives: Separate the blades and sharpen one at a time. Lay flat side of the blade agains the matching carbide, pull through slowly using light pressure. Scissors: Place sharpener label side face down. Place inner flat side of the scissor blade against the 90 degree edge of sharpener Pull through at about a 45 degree angle toward back of sharpener.
