What Does 1 And 2 Mean On Knife Sharpener?
The numbers 1 and 2 on a knife sharpener refer to the stages or slots in the sharpening process. Stage 1 is typically a coarse grit that helps to reshape the blade edge and remove any nicks or chips, while stage 2 is usually a finer grit that hones the edge and creates a sharp edge. Some knife sharpeners have additional stages, such as a polishing stage or a serrated blade stage. The exact function of each stage may depend on the specific type and brand of knife sharpener.
