By tweaking the angle at which your hold your knife while sharpening it, you can change the angle of the blade to better equip it for the tasks you wish to undertake. Decrease all of your sharpening angles by 5 or 10 degrees to get a fine, silk-like cutting edge. Be aware, though, that this will weaken your blade, making it more prone to damage. Angling your blade in the opposite direction, will produce a blunter, more pyramid-like edge, that’s tough, durable and perfect for chopping.
