Kitchen knives in a typical home kitchen often face a challenging life. They are tossed into dishwashers and carelessly stored in kitchen drawers, leading to minor dings and micro-corrosion. While pull-through sharpeners are fast and easy to use, they can catch on these small notches on the blade, potentially causing further damage.
At the other end of the sharpening spectrum, methods like whetstones and sharpening rods are gentler and can handle minor blade damage. However, they require a much higher level of skill and patience than the average home chef can afford. Properly sharpening a single blunt knife with a whetstone can take 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 traditional pull-through sharpeners, while also incorporating aspects of whetstone sharpening to protect your knives and provide more effective and gentle sharpening.
The Smart Sharp's three-stage process gives you the best of both worlds. The first stage "roughens" the knife edge to prepare it for sharpening, smoothing any nicks and imperfections. The second stage uses precision-angled tungsten carbide plates to create the perfect "V" edge, even on the bluntest of knives. The final stage removes any burrs and gently polishes the blade edges for a super-sharp finish.
The Smart Sharp is suitable for a wide range of kitchen knives, including straight-edge steel knives, hardened steel knives, and wide serrated knives (like bread knives). However, it is not recommended for use on ceramic knives, scissors, micro-serrated knives, or knives that have been extensively sharpened with whetstones or steels over time.
The Smart Sharp features an ergonomic comfort handle for a secure grip, suitable for both right and left-handed users. Its heavy-duty, non-slip rubber base provides stability and safety, allowing you to sharpen your knives on any flat surface in your kitchen.
Using the Smart Sharp is incredibly simple. It comes with full instructions and a helpful quick-start video guide. Lantana also provides first-class customer support, ensuring that even first-time users can confidently sharpen their knives with this innovative tool.
