How much does a knife sharpener cost?

Professional knife sharpeners charge on average about R14.71 an inch, or R117.66 to sharpen an 8-inch chef’s knife.

This is a great option if you have want to offload the responsibility and ensure your knives get a tip-top treatment.

How do I know if my knife needs sharpening?

The blade feels dull.

Gently run your fingertips over the edge of the blade. Sharp knives simply feel sharp, with a blade that has a well-defined, distinct edge.

On the other hand, if the blade feels dull or rounded, you’re knife will benefit from being sharpened.

How long should I sharpen my knife?

Ideally, you should sharpen your knife while it is still relatively sharp. If you do this, the knife will only need five or ten minutes against the stone to sharpen.

If you put off sharpening until the knife is truly dull, then you will need to spend significantly more time.

How long do knife sharpeners last?

If it’s under frequent use, you will have to replace it in 5-10 years. With infrequent use, it can last you a decade or more.

Though, once it no longer sharpens your knife, it’s time to look for a replacement. In this situation, it means enough tiny diamond particles have scraped off of the steel.
