Not only does keeping knives sharp make your job easier to complete, but it makes your job safer.

This angle makes the blade edge sharp enough to provide a clean cut through foods whilst retaining durability through constant use. Most Asian style knives are honed to a 17 degree angle, making them slightly sharper than Western style knives, which are generally sharpened to 20 degrees. Asian foods are softer; therefore the blade edge can be sharper as it doesn’t need to cut tough foods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharpening your knives at an angle lower than 17 degrees will make them super sharp, but will mean they will dull much quicker.
