Keep the Edge With Professional Knife Sharpening Services

There’s an important reason businesses and homes alike benefit from professional knife sharpening: Sharp blades are inherently safer. A sharp blade makes slicing almost effortless. Since you don’t have to force it through the product, there is less risk the blade will slip and inflict an injury. Plus, a sharp blade reduces repetitive motion injury, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, because it slices on the first cut.

In addition to increasing safety, sharp blades enhance the look and longevity of sliced food. Dull blades unnecessarily bruise delicate fruits and vegetables during the cutting process, which reduces both their appearance and shelf life. Sharp blades, on the other hand, produce a more appealing and longer lived end product.

Even if all of your knives and other kitchen utensils are sharp now, eventually they will need to be re-sharpened. The frequency for re-sharpening depends on the quality of the blade, the way it is used, the type of product being cut, and how well it is cared for, cleaned, and stored. When a high-quality sharpening steel or honing device will not restore the blade’s edge to a smooth cutting tool, professional knife sharpening is necessary.

During an improper sharpening, blades can be damaged by excessive heating and abrasion. This reduces the strength, lifespan, and appearance of the blade, as well as its overall cutting abilities. To maintain the shape and balance of the knife, it’s important to remove as little edge material as possible during sharpening. All true knife sharpening techniques physically remove some amount of material from the knife blade. But the expert craftsmen at Diamond Sharp go to great lengths to keep that to a minimum and restore each blade’s edge to optimal cutting ability and life span.
