TEST FOR SHARPNESS
To test for sharpness and cutting ability of your fine edge knives, hold a sheet of paper
vertically by its upper edge and carefully cut down through the sheet a small (but safe)
distance from your fingers. A sharp edge (on a straight edge blade) will cut smoothly
without tearing the paper.
Alternatively try cutting a tomato. The knife should penetrate the skin of the tomato
and cut through it on the first pull without applying significant force to the knife.
