DESCRIPTION OF THE

CHEF’SCHOICE HYBRID®DIAMOND HONE KNIFE SHARPENER

The Hybrid®has two sharpening Stages, a ﬁrst sharpening Stage that is motor driven,

followed by a honing Stage that is entirely manual in operation. The sharpening Stage 1 is

motor driven, has two slots (the two slots on the left) to sharpen alternately the left and

right side of the blade’s edge. Always follow an alternating pattern of sharpening in right

and left slots when using Stage 1. This dual-slot stage quickly establishes a sharp edge

that is then honed and ﬁnished in the manual second stage which uses only a single slot

(far right slot) that hones both sides of the edge simultaneously.

USING THE HYBRID®SHARPENER

Note: Always clean your knife before sharpening in the Hybrid®! For your safety, keep your

ﬁngers clear of the blade edge at all times.

You will ﬁnd that the Hybrid®can create and maintain an exceedingly sharp and

eective edge on all your conventional ﬁne edge and serrated cutlery. The primary edge

facets are each formed in Stage 1 at a nominal 20 degrees on each side of the edge, which

results in a total primary edge of 40 degrees. Stage 2 creates a second bevel at a slightly

larger angle leaving a strong double beveled edge structure that will stay sharp longer.

Always use the sharpener with the stage numbers 1 and 2, facing you.

STAGE 1

To sharpen, place the sharpener on the table gripping it securely with your left hand. Push

on the power switch. Insert the knife blade, Figure 1, near its handle, into the far left slot

of Stage #1 and allow the left face of the blade to rest on the left face of the slot as you

pull the knife toward you. The knife edge should be in sustained moving contact with the

internal diamond coated disk. Only light downward force will be necessary as you pull the

blade toward you. Listen carefully to insure your knife maintains good contact with the

diamond disk. Take about 5 seconds to make each pull if you have a six inch (6”)

long blade. Increase the time of each pull for longer blades or decrease the time for

shorter blades.

Figure 1. Inserting the blade in the left slot of

the Stage 1. Alternate individual pulls in left and

right slots.

Burr

Figure 2. Develop a distinct burr along knife edge

before honing in Stage 2. Burr can be detected by

sliding ﬁnger across and away from the edge.

Caution! See text.

Make one pull of the blade in the left slot as described above and then repeat the same

procedure in the adjacent (right) slot of Stage 1. As you pull the knife thru the right slot,

(see Figure 3), allow the right side of the knife to rest on the right face of the slot. If your

knife, before sharpening, is not very dull you will ﬁnd that only about 5 pairs of pulls,

alternating in the left and right slots of Stage 1, will be sucient to put a keen edge on the

blade. However, if the knife is initially very dull you may ﬁnd that 10 or more alternating

pairs of pulls in the left and right slots of Stage 1 will be needed the ﬁrst time as you

reshape and sharpen the old edge. In Stage 1 always pull the blade toward you. Never

push the blade away from you when using Stage 1. Before leaving Stage 1 it is important to

examine the knife edge to insure there is a small burr along one side of the edge.

Figure 2 illustrates how to check for the burr. Proceed as follows: If your last sharpening

pull was in the right slot there should be a small burr on the right side of the blade edge.

If the last pull was in the left slot there should be a small burr along the left side of the

edge. If there is no burr make another pair of pulls and again check for a burr. Repeat

making pairs of alternating right and left pulls until you create a small burr along the edge.

(Sometimes it is easier to create the burr if you pull the blade slower.) Make another single

pull and conﬁrm there is a burr along the edge after each pull. Only then are you are ready

to hone in Stage 2.

STAGE 2

Since Stage 2 is a manual honing stage you can turn o the power switch. If the knife is

fully sharpened in Stage 1 only 4-5 back and forth strokes will be needed in the single slot

of Stage 2 (the far right slot, see Figure 4) to hone a small second bevel along the edge

which will be exceedingly sharp and eective. It should cut paper smoothly allowing you

to make straight or curved cuts easily.

For optimum results in Stage 2 center the blade within the slot width and keep the

length of the blade aligned with the center line of the slot as you move the blade back

and forth in the slot without lifting. Apply only a light downward pressure, about 3-4

pounds, on the blade as you sharpen in Stage 2. For optimum results make smooth

consistent strokes while maintaining the light downward pressure to insure that the two

disks rotate as you move the blade back and forth. The ﬁnished edge will be very sharp

and burr free.

Stage 1. Alternate pulls in left and right slots.

Figure 4. Knife in Stage 2. Use back and forth

sharpening strokes with modest downward

pressure. See text.

RESHARPENING THE KNIFE EDGE

To resharpen follow the procedure for Stage 2 described above, making two to three (2-3)

complete back and forth stroke pairs while maintaining recommended downward

pressure. Listen to conﬁrm the sharpening disks are turning. Then test the edge for

sharpness. If necessary resharpen again but ﬁrst use Stage 1 followed by two to three

(2-3) back and forth pairs of strokes in Stage 2. Generally you should be able to resharpen

several times using only Stage 2 before having to resharpen in Stage 1.

SERRATED BLADES

Serrated blades can be sharpened in Stage 2 (see Figure 5). Center the blade in the slot

of Stage 2 and make ﬁve (5) back and forth pairs of strokes. Examine the edge and if

necessary make another 5 full stroke pairs. Test the blade for sharpness. If the blade to be

sharpened is very dull, ﬁrst make two fast but full pairs of pulls — alternating right and left

slots in Stage 1 and then make ﬁve (5) paired strokes (back and forth) in Stage 2. Because

of its nature, a serrated knife will not ever appear as sharp or cut as smoothly as a straight

edged blade. Caution: Do not make many strokes in Stage 1, or you will remove too much

metal from the teeth of the serrated edge.

ASIAN BLADES

The Hybrid®which sharpens at a primary angle of 20 degrees, can sharpen double

faceted Asian blades such as the Santoku which is traditionally sharpened at 15º.

However, for optimum results with all Asian blades we recommend a 15º sharpener such

as the Chef’sChoice®Electric Models 15XV or 1520 as the preferred choice for all Asian

style blades.

Do not sharpen in the Hybrid®any single sided, single faceted Asian Kataba knives,

such as the traditional sashimi styled blade that is commonly used to prepare ultra thin

sashimi. Stage 2 sharpens simultaneously both sides of the cutting edge while the sashimi

knives are designed to be sharpened only on one side of the blade. The Chef’sChoice

electric sharpeners listed in the previous paragraph will correctly sharpen these single

sided knives.

CERAMIC KNIVES

The Hybrid®is not recommended for ceramic knives.

SCISSORS

Do not attempt to use the Hybrid®to sharpen scissors. EdgeCraft does manufacture

special sharpeners designed just for scissors.

BRANDS OF KNIVES

The Hybrid®will put an excellent edge on all conventional metal Euro/American and

Santoku style knives regardless of brands, including Henckels, Wüsthof, Sabatier, Lamson

and Goodnow, Global, Russell Harrington, Forshner, Chef’sChoice, Messermeisser, Mundial,

Cuisinart, Kitchen Aid, Shun and many, many more.

TEST FOR SHARPNESS

To test for sharpness and cutting ability of your ﬁne edge knives, hold a sheet of paper

vertically by its upper edge and carefully cut down through the sheet a small (but safe)

distance from your ﬁngers. A sharp edge (on a straight edge blade) will cut smoothly

without tearing the paper.

Alternatively try cutting a tomato. The knife should penetrate the skin of the tomato

and cut through it on the ﬁrst pull without applying signiﬁcant force to the knife.

MAINTENANCE

• The exterior of the Hybrid®can be cleaned with a damp soft cloth.

• Periodically shake out and dispose of the metal sharpening dust by inverting

the sharpener and lightly tapping it onto a newspaper, paper towel, or other paper

sheet.

• No oils or other lubricating liquids are necessary with this sharpener.
