Knife Sharpening Angle Guide - Knife Life

When it comes time to sharpen your favorite knife, it’s important to carefully consider the edge angle. Knives that are thin at the edge tend to cut better but at the cost of durability. Fragile edges tend to roll, chip, and go dull with less use than a knife with a more robust edge thickness. A thick edge is more durable but loses out on slicing tasks. Pairing the right edge angle (also called edge bevel) to your knife is an important element of maximizing your knifes performance.
