Last week, I highlighted the Miyabi Santoku Knife which is one of the best knives I’ve ever used. While investing in a quality knife is a great thing, when the cutting edge is dull or damaged it will still feel like a cheap blade. The MinoSharp Knife Sharpener comes to the rescue of your blade.
Keeping your knife edge in good shape requires care and attention. Don’t put knives in the dishwasher or toss them in the sink to wash them (besides the fact that’s dangerous), as little nicks and grooves will ruin the cut.
Getting your blade professionally sharpened should still be done on a regular basis but maintenance with a home sharpener will extend the life of the edge. The MinoSharp Plus Universal Sharpener ceramic water sharpener is a handy and easy to use kitchen tool. The compact and easy to use device requires little effort to run the knife blade across the stones when filled with water.
Since you’ve invested in the quality knife, spend a little bit more to help maintain its quality.
The MinoSharp Plus Universal Sharpener is available in a 2 or 3 stage version online or at Cook Culture stores in Vancouver and Victoria.
