A small debate seems to have sparked up since we released the Precision Adjust Knife Sharpener. Is it better to push the abrasive into the knife as you sharpen or pull it away? Should you "saw" back and forth or is a sweeping motion more beneficial?

We decided to take the feedback we were seeing and put it to the test. With the help of our Dino Lite to magnify the results we take a closer look to see which technique provides the best sharpening finish.
