Sharpening a Shun Knife on a Whetstone

Maintain the edge on your Shun knives with this video tutorial. Learn the proper techniques to sharpening with a stone, and how regular maintenance will extend the life of your knives!

Here is how to sharpen a kitchen knife. You'll need a knife, a whetstone, a towel, and a newspaper. You will a #1000 grit whetstone. Take it out and place it on the stand. First, dull the edge. Make sure it's dull and we'll start from there. Key points for sharpening success: Point 1: When sharpening, maintain the same angle between the knife and the whetstone from beginning to the end of each stroke. The angle will be about 16 degrees. Hold the knife correctly to prevent wobbling, with index finder running along the top. Also put 2 or 3 fingers of the other hand near the edge for extra support. Then begin stroking the knife along the whetstone, using the full surface of the whetstone. When you have done enough strokes in one place, move down the edge and continue until you have sharpened the entire knife. Sharpening the knife section by section will give you more precise work. Point 2: Knowing the number of strokes it takes to sharpen the knife comes from touch and feel of the cutting edge than counting a certain number of strokes. To check: feel the edge of the knife with your fingertips from heel to tip. You should feel a bump, or burr, of stripped metal along the entire length of the blade. It should feel about the width of a hair. Holding the handle of the knife up a bit will help you sharpen the tip of the knife. Point 3: If your knife is double-beveled, you need to sharpen the other side. Place the knife on the whetstone with the cutting edge facing forward and use the same method as before with hand placement and getting the correct angle. Start with the tip and work down the entire edge of the blade. When you reach the heel of the blade, you will need to make an adjustment to your grip. The handle will get in the way. Just turn it and make sure the heel is in contact with the whetstone surface. Make sure your grip and angle are correct, and continue sharpening. Check for the burr along the knife's edge again. Point 4: How to remove the burr: to remove burrs that were created during the sharpening, you will need to use the newspaper. Put your knife at an angle as shown and scrape the blade over the paper, lifting it up to finish. Do the entire blade, then turn it over and do the other side. Then check to make sure there is no burr left. When you feel only a smooth edge, your sharpening job is done.
