The new, efficient 3-Stage Chef’sChoice® Diamond Hone® Hybrid® Model 270 is the company's most advanced Hybrid’s® yet, combining their acclaimed CrissCross® sharpening technology and electric and manual sharpening stages that provide superior edge geometry and razor sharp edges on both straight edge and serrated knives including household and kitchen knives, sports knives and pocket knives. The Chef’sChoice CrissCross® sharpening technology is praised by home cooks and professional chefs for its extremely sharp edge with lots of “bite.” The diamond abrasive wheels sharpen simultaneously “into” and “out-of” the edge for a superior burr-free edge. Featuring elegant and durable brushed stainless steel knife guides, Stages 1 and 2 are electric using 100% diamond abrasives for fast and easy edge shaping and sharpening. Stage 3 uses ultra-fine diamond abrasive wheels for a polished, razor-sharp, arch-shaped edge that is stronger and more durable. Stage 3 also sharpens serrated edges. One year limited warranty.
