Victorinox Ceramic Sharpener - 26cm

Whilst stainless steel sharpeners have been traditionally used to maintain kitchen knives, ceramic sharpeners have the advantage of being almost as hard as diamonds, giving a far sharper edge finish.

Every kitchen, whether domestic or commercial, requires a range of sharp knives for quick and easy preparation of food. More importantly sharp knives reduce the risk of cuts and other accidents. As such the top quality ceramic knife sharpener from Victorinox is an essential piece of equipment for all chefs.

Victorinox Duo Ceramic Sharpeners are manufactured using zirconium oxide of the highest purity to give fast knife sharpening with a superior, razor sharp finish. The Duo Ceramic Sharpener has simple to use, colour coded ceramic sharpening rods. The blue, coarse grit, ceramic rods add a sharp edge to dull knives, whilst the fine grit, white ceramic rods polish the sharpened edge.

To achieve the perfect blade using the Duo Ceramic Sharpeners is very quick and simple. Victorinox recommends that the blade of the knife is placed at a 15 - 20 degree sharpening angle, before pushing the knife away from the body 2 to 5 times.

• The 26cm Duo Ceramic Sharpener is safe for use in a dishwasher.
