Sharpening with DMT

Sharpeners

Serrated Knife Sharpening

Sharpening a serrated knife is easily accomplished using the DMT Serrated Diafold

Knife sharpener; a

tapered diamond file from ¼” to

” in diameter.

Rest the tip of the knife blade on a table edge under an overhead light and pivot the knife so that the

serrations reflect light back at you brightly. This ensures the serrations are level (parallel) to the tabletop.

Match the diameter of the sharpener to the diameter of the serrations and stroke back and forth gently

using about ½” of the rod while slightly rotating the sharpener.

Sharpen all the same size serrations first, then move the sharpening rod to the next size and sharpen

those.

For a combination straight and serrated blades, use the serrated sharpener as a round file to sharpen the

straight edge of the knife.

Overview

 Rest back edge of knife on table top edge.
