	Keeping your knife sharp is important, not only to make your knife more efficient and productive, but to make it safer to use also. You've heard that most knife accidents are the result of dull edges? It's true. When you have to force a knife to cut, you risk loss of control, slipping and resulting injury. (Once again, this comes from the Voice of Experience). Plus,  if you learn the secret of knife sharpening, I guarantee that you will become a very popular guy. (You are absolutely going to be dumbfounded by the amount of dull edges you're going to find in the world--and the people that have simply accepted them, not thinking that edges can be restored to new condition ) .  All of these (with the exception of the ceramic rods of course ) are genuine Arkansas Novaculite, not a less expensive composite

	Hey, you want to do something nice? Offer to go own to the local hunger center or soup kitchen and offer to sharpen their knives. The knives they use are typically second hand donations but you might be surprised to see some high end name brands. Many decent knives end up getting donated because they may have gotten dull and no one knew how to sharpen them.  These often get subjected to some very hard use and abuse. Show them what a difference a sharp edge can make!!
