Hi folks,
This is my method of how to sharpen knives at home for personal use or for professional use in the restaurant industry or for butchery industry.
I was a professional Tally boner for 6 Years in the meat works where we got paid by the number of sheep or beef we could bone out in a set day...!!
In my case as a tally sheep boner it was 110 sheep a day so the faster your crew and my self could bone out the sheep carcass, that meant you could finish work sooner and go home.
Most of the time is was 20 sheep an hour so that meant you finished in aground 6 hours work time a day.
So...To be able to work at that lightning speed ....!
" YOU HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO KEEP YOUR KNIFE SHARP...!!!!
Only top knife hands could make the grade to be a Tally Bonner..!!
That is how I had to learn and understand how to sharpen a knife and to understand the edge concept on an knife, also how to keep it sharp by using a steel to rub the edge of the knife as to keep that sharp edge in the centre of the blade so it would stay sharp as long as It could before I would have to resharpen the knife edge.
Now remember...
You have a greater chance to cut yourself with a BLUNT KNIFE ...! Than a SHARP KNIFE...!!
Regards Tony... :-)
