Give your kitchen the cutting edge. The Vulkanus knife sharpener employs a patented, Austrain-made sharpening steel that is as hard as ceramic, yet won't crack or chip. This material allows knives to be sharpened very effectively and quickly. 4 to 6 strokes is usually all that is necessary for maintaining a razor sharp edge. The spring action arms open as you push downward, thereby matching the angle of sharpening to the angle of the edge being sharpened. This means that you will always maintain the orginal angle of your blade, whether it be a slicing knife, a boning knife, a santoku-style knife, chefs knife or even a serrated bread knife.
