Product Description:

Convert traditional 20-degree factory edges of European and American household knives into high-performance Trizor 15-degree edges with this professional electric knife sharpener. It quickly sharpens all brands and types of knives, including straightedge and serrated and contemporary double-bevel or single-bevel traditional Asian-style knives. The three-stage unit combines ultra-sharp 15-degree edge technology with the strength and durability of the triple-bevel arch-shaped Trizor edge, which resists dulling longer than conventionally sharpened hollow-ground or V-shaped edges. Simply pull the blade through the slots to obtain the desired level of sharpness--the machine accommodates the thickest and thinnest knife blades and adjusts for the proper angle automatically thanks to its flexible spring guides.

The first stage features conical disks with diamond abrasives that create extremely fine micro-grooves and the first major bevel of the arch-shaped edge. The second stage uses even finer diamond abrasives on conical disks to shape the second, smaller bevel with finer microgrooves. The third stage uses patented, flexible, abrasive stropping disks that create a microscopically smooth, sharp edge with minimal metal removal, helping to extend the life of fine knives. Even more, it produces the third and final bevel while polishing the micro-grooves formed in the first two stages. Stage three can also be used to straighten and sharpen each tooth of serrated knives. Use the three stages in different combinations to create a custom edge. Other highlights include a simple front-access on/off switch, four stabilizing feet for secure operation, and durable construction for long-lasting performance. Assembled in the USA, the knife-sharpening station measures approximately 6-1/5 by 12 by 6-2/5 inches and carries a three-year limited warranty.

The new Chef's Choice Trizor XV Sharpener is another breakthrough from the world's leading manufacturer of quality knife sharpeners. With ultra-sharp EdgeSelect technology and the stability of a triple bevel (Trizor) edge, you can hone your knives to a high performance 15 degree angle. The three stage process and efficient flexible stropping disks sharpen the edge with minimal metal removal, helping to extend the life of fine knives. Diamond abrasives on the conical disks in Stage 1 create extremely fine micro- grooves (for more bite), while simultaneously creating the first major bevel of the arch shaped edge. Stage 2 uses even finer diamond abrasives on conical disks which shape the second, smaller bevel with finer microgrooves. Stage 3 uses the patented flexible abrasive stropping disk system to create a microscopically smooth, sharp edge. It creates the third and final bevel while polishing the micro-grooves formed in stages 1 and 2. Stage 3 is also used to sharpen serrated knives, as it straightens and sharpens each tooth.
