How to sharpen your knife on a double-face stone ?

When we move the blade surface on the diamond or ceramics, the
important thing is to work in a stable hold the stone firmly with one
hand, failing to put on a plane. Do not, if you press too, it is
difficult to maintain the same pressure along the entire length of
cutting. Make the same number of passages from one side or other of
the blade, and with the gesture as regular as possible. Keep the same
angle between the cutting and stone throughout the sharpening. This is
the most sensitive and most crucial.

Avoid rotations of the wrist! Put you above the stone. Move the blade
with a movement of translation. If you do not break the wrist, there
is very little chance that the angle of attack is changed. Stay
focused until the end of your mouvement.Au instead of breaking the
wrist … Raise your elbow instead! By raising the handle of the
knife, you hold the angle of contact between the wire and stone,
always in the same movement of translation. As a precaution, get their
hands on a knife of lesser value,don’t be afraid to scratch! “
