Global Knife Sharpener — Frequently Asked Questions (New Zealand)
Do I need a specific sharpener for Global knives?
Global knives have a thinner Japanese-style edge (CROMOVA 18), so sharpeners designed for Japanese angles — like Global’s wheels or fine ceramic systems — give the best, longest-lasting results.
How often should I sharpen my Global knives?
Sharpening every 3–6 months suits most home cooks. Between sharpenings, use a ceramic rod to hone the edge regularly — this keeps blades performing well and delays the need for more aggressive sharpening.
Are Global sharpeners easy for beginners to use?
Yes. Many Global sharpeners have guided angles or simple water-wheel mechanisms that make achieving the correct bevel straightforward, so beginners can get professional results with minimal learning curve.
What is the difference between honing and sharpening?
Honing realigns the blade edge and is done often to maintain sharpness. Sharpening removes metal to recreate the edge and is needed less frequently. Both are important: hone regularly and sharpen only when the blade becomes noticeably dull.
Are ceramic sharpeners suitable for Global knives?
Yes — ceramic rods and fine-grit systems are excellent for maintaining Global’s thin edge. They remove minimal metal while polishing the bevel, extending edge life between full sharpenings.
Can I use a Global sharpener for other knife brands?
You can, but Global sharpeners are optimized for Japanese-style angles. Western knives with thicker edges may need different settings or coarser stones to achieve the best result.
How long will a Global knife sharpener last?
With routine cleaning (for water-wheel models) and sensible use, a well-made Global sharpener can last many years. Replace worn stones or ceramic parts as needed to retain peak performance.
What maintenance does a Global sharpener require?
Keep ceramic rods and stones clean and dry after use. For water-wheel sharpeners, change the water regularly and wipe parts dry. Store the sharpener in a dry place to prevent wear and contamination.
