Furi Diamond Fingers Knife Sharpener

Use on a stable surface with the holding hand behind the guard. Draw heel-to-tip in one direction and lift between passes; do not saw backwards and forwards. Confirm suitability before using on serrated, single-bevel or very hard specialist blades, and clean fine filings from the knife before food preparation.

Use Diamond Fingers for regular edge maintenance on conventional double-bevel knives. Place the sharpener securely, draw the blade heel-to-tip in one direction and lift between passes; two to four passes usually maintain an edge, with up to six for a duller blade. Wipe and dry the knife afterwards. Do not use it blindly on chipped, serrated or specialist single-bevel blades.

About Furi: Established in 1996 and developed through Australian engineering and chef input, Furi occupies a practical performance position between entry-level stamped knives and specialist artisan cutlery. The brand's signature is ergonomic problem-solving: the reverse-wedge handle is shaped to lock into the hand and reduce forward slip and fatigue, while seamless blade-to-handle construction removes the rivets and scales that can trap food. Furi Pro blades use high-performance Japanese stainless steel; current Tech Edge models may specify X50CrMoV15 steel, a hand-sharpened 26-degree included edge and 55–57 HRC, but those specifications should be applied only where listed. The range is intentionally task-led, covering santoku, cook's, paring, utility, filleting, carving, bread, vegetable and cleaving geometries, plus Diamond Fingers edge maintenance and unusually design-conscious blocks and racks. Choose Furi when comfortable secure handling, easy hygiene, clear blade roles and coordinated visible storage matter more than the prestige or maintenance ritual of a handmade high-carbon Japanese knife. Knives should be hand washed, dried immediately, sharpened appropriately and stored with edges separated. The supplier generally lists a 25-year domestic guarantee; commercial buyers should confirm duty suitability and coverage.
