Can this blade be sharpened in a conventional electric knife sharpener?

I don't see why not, but I really wouldn't recommend it. Victorinox blades hold their edge really well, so unless it's something you plan to use in a professional capacity, you'll do fine just refreshing the edge with a knife steel. Those sharpeners change the shape of the blade to create a new edge. I wouldn't want to do that to a $50 knife.

No, because that would dull it considerable, and probably lower the temper in the blade due to excessive heat. The blade is much thinner than a conventional kitchen knife.

I work in a pro kitchen and I have only used the knife at home. I think you would have to sharpen it if you still wanted that out of the box edge. Mine is going to have to be sharpened soon.

The answer is "Yes". But, it arrives dull: I sharpened ours immediately, mostly using a file. HTH, Robert

No.. they are cheap knives not meant to be sharpened. Chefs talk about using these types of knives and throwing them away and buying new ones because of their price. I think sharpening them would take off the finish.. but if you wanted to try .. use one of the 16 degree ones that you slide the knife through.

Mine is serrated so it can't be sharpened, but it shouldn't have to be. They call it micro serrated, the teeth are very small and close together. Don't put the blades in the dishwasher or let hard stuff hit them and it should last a long time

it will do regular scissors and scissors for hair cutting. I am fairly confident that it can sharpen electrician scissors as well. This tool comes with a significant amount of adjustment settings for angles so that it should make sharpening electrician scissors entirely possible.

I would think so. I have this KA-BAR Potbelly, and it will sharpen that. http://www.kabar.com/knives/detail/39

Yes you can. Traditionally only the last 1/2 to last 1/4 of the blade was sharpened. A caveat exists. Generally blades from China are poor at holding a good edge, and are very brittle (i.e. the blade is more decoration than functional), so do some research on the steel used in making the blade.

No, the knife sharpener isn't electric. You need to insert the knife into the slot that's on the back of the unit and sharpen the knife manually. Depending on how dull your knife is, you may need to pull it through the sharpener about 10 times, which is standard for most manual knife sharpeners.

No you have to sharpen one side each in a right and left slot. then hone it in a separate slot. It is really superior to whst I used to have on my electric can opener.

Yes it should. Please read the directions carefully. It will sharpen it nicely, but it will not be as sharp as a new blade.

No, I'm pretty sure that you can't sharpen serrated edge knives with any regular sharpener.

I would use a regular fillet blade to fillet fish. Would not use an electric knife.

I do not believe it can be sharpened. However, the cutting blade can be replaced, because I've had that done.

Yes. I use the sharpener that Wüsthof makes, which is designed to accommodate the blade edge design.

I would say no. The blades have to be perfect and with special sharpening equipment you would not keep them perfect.

Personally I would by a different sharpener. I am NOT pleased with the unit that I bought. it does not do an adequate job of sharpening any knife.
