{"product_id":"handheld-knife-sharpener","title":"Handheld Knife Sharpener","description":"\u003cp\u003eA small handheld sharpener with several grades of slot in one body, so a blunt edge gets ground back and a tired one gets straightened without moving to a second tool. It lives in a drawer and comes out for two minutes, which is really the only way a knife stays sharp. It is a plain, useful bit of Lumen \u0026amp; Loam kitchen kit with nothing to learn and nothing to set up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frame is aluminum alloy, with a handle sized for a firm grip that keeps your fingers well away from the blade. Slots run coarse through to finishing. Hold the sharpener on a flat surface, draw the blade through the coarse slot a few times, then finish in the fine slot, pulling the knife toward you in one steady stroke each time. Sawing back and forth rounds the edge instead of setting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne size, small enough to store in a drawer with the rest of the prep tools. Keep it near where you chop rather than across the kitchen, since a sharpener that is awkward to reach never gets used. Wipe out the metal dust after sharpening and keep it dry. Do not use it on serrated or ceramic blades, which need a different tool entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame: aluminum alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlots: several grades in one body, coarse through to finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle: sized for a firm grip, keeps fingers clear of the blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: compact, drawer sized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot for: serrated or ceramic blades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: wipe out metal dust after use and keep dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e⚠ California Proposition 65 warning\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWARNING:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
