Ever wondered about the perfect blade angle for sharpening your knife? At Roselli, we often receive inquiries from our valued customers regarding the sharpening angles we use at our factory. And guess what? We're thrilled to share our insider knowledge with you so you can achieve expert-level sharpness right in your own kitchen!
But first, let's clarify how we discuss angles when it comes to knives. Most knives feature a bevel on both sides. When we suggest a 15° angle for sharpening, we mean you should sharpen both sides of the knife to 15°, resulting in a total angle of 30°.
Now, let's dive into our sharpening angles, categorized as "A" and "B" angles:
(See reference image below where we illustrate the Roselli Hunting knife so you can see which angle corresponds to which part of the knife.)
A = Primary bevel with a 9° angle
B = Micro bevel with a 15° angle
C = Spine
At Roselli, we primarily grind all primary bevels with a very slight convex geometry and a small micro bevel. Since each knife is hand-sharpened, slight variations in angles may occur.
Our factory's sharpening angle is around 15°. However, when sharpening your knife for hunting or general outdoor use, you have the flexibility to adjust the angle of the micro bevel (sharpening angle). Increase the angle for a more durable edge, or decrease it for a sharper edge. We recommend maintaining the angle between 15-21° for optimal performance.
A = Primary bevel with a 9° angle
B = Micro bevel / Sharpening angle
So, as you embark on your next adventure, remember that the right angle isn't just a measurement – it's the key to unlocking peak performance in every slice and cut.
