Hello,
Iam thinking of getting a WE or EP to sharpen my Global Knife Set for Professional Kitchen use.
Iam leaning towards getting the WE over the EP but iam worried that I might have trouble trying to sharpen my Global G-19
This is a long Flexible Fillet knife for Fish, its blade has alot of lateral movement when you put pressure on it.
I tried looking on youtube for a video of somebody sharpening a Flexible Fillet knife but I didnt see anybody using the WE for this purpose.
Iam worried that the knife will bend too much when I sharpen it with the stones. Because each time you swipe down the blade with the arms it will put pressure on the blade and make it Flex.
I know when you sharpen a flexible knife with the EP that the Blade is supported by the system and all you have to do is move the blade to a supported position as you sharpen it.
Ive read that the WE comes with a Knife Brace for Flexible knifes but I have not seen a picture of it or video of how that brace works so Iam kind of Unsure at the moment if its going to work with my G-19
Basically do you think the WE is capable of Sharping a Long Flexible Fillet Knife ?
The G-19 is 11 inches and I also have a 6 inch Flexible Fillet knife the G-21
