Having trouble getting an edge on my Shun knife?
Usually I buy only the German knives.
However, I recently bought a Shun which is a Japanese knife. I like it but I am having a hell of a time getting an edge on it.
Seems like the German knives are way more easy to sharpen?
I am having trouble getting an edge on my Shun because it is thicker.
What would be the best way to sharpen my Shun?
There are three basic options for sharpening your Shun knives. The first option is taking your knives to a professional sharpener. If you choose this option, please make sure your professional sharpener knows that Shun knives are sharpened to a 16-degree angle on either side.
The second sharpening option is purchasing an electric sharpener. There are a number of sharpeners on the market, but it is necessary that you purchase a sharpener which has a 16-degree bevel in order to ensure you get the best blade on your Shun knives. Shun makes an electric sharpener which sells for $59, an excellent choice for sharpening. Remember, however, that sharpening is NOT something that should be done on a weekly or even monthly basis. Sharpening does remove some of the metal of the blade so sharpening too often may reduce the life of the blade.
Lastly, you can send the knives back to the Kai, USA facility in Portland, Oregon. At the Portland facility, we can restore the factory edge to your blade for the life of the knife, at no cost to you aside from mailing the knife to us. Just make sure you include a return address and telephone number so we can contact you if needed.
