Knife Sharpening Cleveland Ohio Tricks

By Jaclyn Hurley


Over time, knives would tend to get dull because it is being used all of the time and for many different purposes. It is for this purpose that knives have to be sharpened from time to time so that it will still be able to retain its sharpness. Now for those who do not know how to do this process, here are some knife sharpening cleveland ohio tips.

Now in order to sharpen the blade, one will be using a stone or a rock that has a flat shape which is around the size of a regular hand. Now take note that this is the thing that one will use to make the knives sharp. Now before doing anything with the rock, he has to put it in water and clean it up a little bit.

Now the very first thing that one should know is that he will not be using the smooth side of this rock to sharpen the knife. He will be using the rough edge of the rock in order to make sure that the blade becomes sharp. Now in order to get the rough edge, he has to first break the stone into two.

To do this, one must first get his hands on a big nail and of course a hammer. Now he will be using the hammer and the nail to break the initial exterior of the rock so that he may be able to get into the interior. Now all he has to do here is to stick the nail in the middle of the stone and hammer it all the way in.

Now once there is already a stone in the hole, one can now take the nail out and get his drill. Since one part of the exterior has already been broken down by the nail, one may now use the drill to further penetrate the hole and eventually drill it down. So use the drill to crack the entire stone from the middle.

Of course there would be times when the stone is too stubborn to go all the way down. When this happens, one should use a saw to slice the stone into two parts. So when one now has two pieces of the stone, he should take one stone and lay it down on a very sturdy table that will not break.

Once the rock has already been split, then one may now start sharpening his blade. Now to do this, he has to put the blade on the stone and start moving it up and down. Now he has to be very careful while doing this because if he is not, there is a possibility that he will get wounded by the sharp edge of his knife.

Now one thing that he should remember is that he should never push the blade on to the stone too hard otherwise the blade might get damaged. Of course when this happens, the effectiveness of the blade will not be as good as before anymore. That is why one has to always make sure that he moves the knife softly.
