Can this knife be sharped without damage the non-stick coat?

Paulo, For the price this is a great knife and I find myself using it more than my expensive knives and find that a few quick swipes on my sharpening steel keeps it very sharp. The non-stick coating is on the body of the knife, the edge itself is not coated.

That depends on the type of sharpener you are using but, I wouldn't advise buying this knife in the first place, it's feel good price would be less than $2. It is crap!

It comes very sharp and i havent needed to sharpen it even after constant us for a few months.I would say that yes at some point when you sharpen it,it will take a small layer of the coating of near the blade.

sharpening will remove the non-stick coat but it really shouldn't matter too much, the holes do more than enough to make things not stick much

Yes it can be sharpened. I just make a few swipes on my fine steel between uses and its razor sharp. The blade is very thin so its great for fine thin slicing which is what I use it for.

Yes. Relatively. But by then the whole coating is damaged and discolored. The handle temperature would be your secondary problem.

Yes, of course it can be sharpened. Get to it! You'll be done in less than an hour! Cheers!

Yes, you can! As long as the blade is straight and not serrated. I've gone through my knives (including pocket knives) and sharpened everything.

I've never heard of anyone doing that. I'd imagine if you needed repairs of that nature you could just send it to S&W but its probly easier/cheaper to just buy another if you've damaged yours to that extreme. I've had many folding knives and had them sharpened many times without ever worrying about replacing the blades.

Not really no, just keep it clean, and sharpen it when it's dull. Which isn't very often.

Yes; using it without thoroughly soaking it first will damage the stone and/or your knife.

Actually, I wouldn't recommend that. The tips of my knives have already chipped. Just hand wash them and place them in a drawer.

A magnetic bar can scratch your knife, if you want to keep the finish. If u use a magnetic bar, be careful and slightly twist the knife away from the edge when removing.

I have not had a need to sharpen the blade. It has been used seasonally and this is the second year of use. It is extremely sharp when it arrives and it remains sharp. I'm not certain as to what I will use to sharpen when the time comes.

be careful. I sharpened mine with pocket sharpener and it scratched the blade coating of the side of the blade because the blade is so thick. the blade coating is not durable at all

carefully...... jk mine has yet to become to dull! As long as you don't cut something stupid with it, it stays pretty sharp. It would defiantly have to be a some what free hand deal if you were to sharpen it. However I wouldn't let that stop me from buying this knife it is for sure one of my favorites in my collection!

One of the knives, that I use most often, is being to get dull. I don't know if they can be sharpened. I've been wondering the same thing, but just haven't investigated yet.

Yes, once the Spine (back) of the knife is squared off enough and not rounded, yes you can, I do. You don't want to use the blade edge unless you have to. It will dull the edge.

It wont necessarily hurt the blade, but the paint on the side of the blade will come off. So if you don't mind a silver edge rather than a black edge, It should be fine.

I think it will harm the bottom. I would not recommend using a sharp knife on this pan. Unless you don't care if it gets scratched. I don't think it would effect the quality of the pan if it was to get scratched accidently. WOULD NOT ADVISE USING A SHARP KNIFE ON THIS PAN.

While the blade is shielded, if you scrape the housing on your non-stick surface you could scratch it. I do not use it on mine, if I need to blend something I cooked in a non-stick pan I pour it into a large 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup, then return it to the pan.
