Vulkanus Messerschärfer Crown (MSCR2021)

Knives with a smooth cutting edge are sharpened in 2 phases. For rough sharpening, the tip of the knife must be tilted downwards and the knife pulled through the grinding rods 2-3 times under light pressure. During the 2nd phase, fine grinding, the tip of the knife is tilted upwards and the knife is pulled through the grinding rods a few more times until the desired sharpness is achieved. Knives with a serrated edge, on the other hand, are pulled horizontally through the sharpening rods and the knife must not be tilted. It is important to apply light lateral pressure in the direction of the serrated edge. This process is repeated until the desired sharpness is achieved (2-4 times depending on the condition of the blade). After the grinding process, there are tiny metal shavings on the knife blade which should be rinsed off. The knife sharpener itself is very easy to clean due to its simple structure and sturdy workmanship. To do this, the metal shavings are simply wiped off with a damp cloth. The Vulkanus Professional is also dishwasher safe, so if you want you can put it in the dishwasher. The range of uses for the Vulkanus Professional is also very extensive, so this knife sharpener can be used to sharpen both straight-edged and serrated knives at a wide variety of grinding angles. With the Vulkanus Generation 2, the performance of the tried-and-tested sharpener has been further optimized. The sharpening inserts have been revised in terms of material and shape, so that their service life has been increased threefold and the sharpening result has been refined. The sharpening angle has been expanded to a range of 11° to 21°. A sharpening shaft that is wider at the top makes it easier to position the knives. The bar springs are concealed in the new generation and their pressure has been significantly increased. In addition, the sharpening elements are now much easier to replace if necessary.
